Can I actually learn Chinese watching TV?

Sounds crazy but it's actually a brilliant way to learn Chinese and immerse yourself. Watching TV in Chinese allows you to hear exactly how Mandarin is spoken by the locals and exposes you to the culture of China and the language like proverbs and idioms . It's great for your understanding but with Chinese, it's essential you talk from the beginning stages of learning , so you'll want to find someone to discuss things with to really kick on.

Will my Chinese improve with the usage of Netflix, Apps etc?

Absolutely, but with Chinese, talking is important so although you'll be absorbing lots of information, it's good to talk about it with a native speaker. This is where an Online Chinese Tutor is essential if you want to take your Chinese to the next level. Alongside watching Chinese TV/News/Movies, this will help you hugely.

Can I watch TV with two sets of subtitles?

You can with a great Chrome plug-in we discovered called Language Learning with Netflix . See our video demo below to see how easy it is to install and use.

My Chinese isn't great, should I still watch TV even though the level is much higher?

It's never too early to learn Chinese but be sure to pick your program wisely . Perhaps ask a Chinese friend or seek advice online. Some shows will indeed be very tough to follow if you are a beginner but that shouldn't stop you from listening, using subtitles and absorbing the language.

Does China have it's own "Friends" TV show?

The TV show 爱情公寓 (ài qíng gōng yù) iApartment is often referred to as the "Chinese friends" due to their many similarities (i.e. six young adults finding their way in life, three male, three female, romantic twists etc).

Fluency will come from the conversations you have with locals at a restaurant, in a taxi, or at a bar.

When you study in Asia, you can fully immerse yourself in the culture, giving a deeper understanding of the language.
