About this listen

你好！Whether you're saying 'nihao' for the first time or debating China's tech trends in Mandarin – welcome to Chinese Around You, where language meets living culture!


As a TESOL educator & CATTI-certified translator with 10,000+ teaching hours, I’ve seen learners struggle with two things:


1️⃣ Finding materials that grow with their level (from HSK1 beginners to HSK6+ advanced learners)

2️⃣ Understanding the ‘why’ behind Chinese habits– not just the language, but the culture that shapes it


That’s why every episode gives you:

✅ Multi-level nuggets: HSK words explained through real-life scenarios

- Beginners: Key phrases with pinyin & slow pronunciation

- Intermediate: Grammar breakdowns & cultural insights

- Advanced: Slang, idioms, and deep dives into Chinese thinking

✅ Culture decoded: From workplace norms to weekend rituals, we explore what makes China tick

✅ Actionable practice: Tiered challenges for every level (try saying it → use it creatively → debate it)
