• Study Chinese

    I started studying Chinese in Autumn 2008 and enrolled a beginner Chinese course at my university in Finland. 1,5 years later I made the decision to move to China. First I studied Chinese as en exchange student at Guangzhou University, but then decided to make Chinese my major. I’m doing my undergraduate degree in Chinese Language at the Sun Yat-Sen University.

    When I decided to make my hobby a major, suddenly it wasn’t all fun and easy anymore. Studying Chinese requires some hard work! But luckily there are lots of different kind of tools to help us.

    Notice! This page includes affiliate links, which means that if you decide to buy, then I get a small share. But remember that I will only recommend learning tools I sincerely think can help you to study Chinese. Those small commissions I might make are used to pay my tuition fees (or more like a tiny fraction of them). Thank you!
