Six months in, zero Chinese background, and already holding her own with the tones.
In this episode, I introduce you to Elizabeth, one of my ILM Gym students who came to me with no prior exposure to Mandarin whatsoever, despite being ethnically Chinese.
Growing up in Indonesia and now living in Canada, Elizabeth decided she wanted to reconnect with her Chinese heritage through the language.
But there was a catch: native speakers often assume she already speaks it fluently. That pressure made getting the foundations right non-negotiable.
You'll hear a clip of her reading a script she wrote herself, and the results show her brilliant progress within just 6 months.
