How I mastered Mandarin in 6 months *self-taught at home*

How I mastered Mandarin in 6 months *self-taught at home*



After 6 months of self-studying Mandarin at home in lockdown, I passed my HSK 4 exam with 99% and can hold a basic conversation with a native speaker. My Chinese is currently at an intermediate level – it’s far from perfect and I have a LOT left to learn, but here’s an overview of how I planned my studying and the resources I’d most recommend! 🙂 I hope this helps you with your Chinese learning journey, and please let me know in the comments if you’d like more language learning content as I have lots more ideas to share if you’re interested! 🙂

Who am I? ????‍♀️
Hi, my name is Izzy, I’m a medical student at Cambridge University currently on a gap year learning Mandarin and working with a health-tech startup. I make videos about language learning, studying medicine at Cambridge, and self-improvement. I’m always learning new things and hope to share the journey with you!
