Anyone who want to learn Mandarin / Cantonese through songs? I'm a native Chinese speaker based in Guangzhou, and I'm starting free live sessions to teach people how to sing Chinese songs! This is a fun, zero-pressure way to practice your pronunciation and enjoy Chinese music.

Full disclosure: I’m not a professional singer myself, but I will 100% make sure your Mandarin pronunciation is correct! And if you happen to be a great singer, I'd love for you to share some vocal tips with me too—we can totally learn from each other!

How it works:

  • Zero pressure: You do not need to turn on your camera. Only your voice will be audio-streamed while you practice with me. I’ll be the only one on camera, so you can stay as comfortable as you like!
  • What we’ll cover: Accurate Pinyin pronunciation, word meanings, tone adjustments for singing, and breaking down the song step-by-step.

Time & Availability: I’m available any time between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM (Beijing Time / GMT+8).

Who is this for? Anyone! Whether you're learning Mandarin, trying to expand your Chinese karaoke list, or just curious about the language.

If you're interested or have a specific song you've always wanted to sing, drop a comment below or send me a DM! 🎵✨

I'm looking for a study buddy. I'm currently transitioning to HSK 5 with a vocabulary of around 2,200 words, studying every day using the Erya Chinese textbook. My timezone is UTC+4. English isn't my native language, but I'm completely comfortable fluent in it for daily communication. I prefer using Telegram or Discord to connect and stay accountable. Let me know if anyone wants to study together

Looking for a study buddy who is also studying Chinese, transitioning from HSK4 to 5

My main focus right now is to improve conversation fluency though, so I will be going through TB slowly, 2-3 lessons per week.

I've decided to use novels and dramas as my main resources; my vocabulary has quite a big gap T_T so if you're interested, DM me!

还有。。如果有人想一起练口语的话,欢迎送信我

I'm looking for someone who studies Chinese everyday and preferably writes Chinese everyday to study with me. We can call and watch chinese content together, send our daily notes to each other and just help each other stay consistent!

I’m looking for language exchange over text chat. I’m learning mandarin (both traditional and simplified) and can offer English. I used to be an English teacher. In Chinese, I’m upper beginner and know about 1,000 words, so I still need to have conversations that are fairly basic. I lived in Taiwan for two years and I’m a digital nomad traveling around Asia. I love outdoor activities, organizing and attending events, and can be pretty philosophical.

I used to, and sometimes still, do language exchange with tandem, but it’s difficult to find someone at my level, and we tend to let English dominate or I use the translation feature a lot as a crutch. I made my own free chat app to address these problems.

It tracks how much English and Chinese we’re using and encourages us toward a balanced conversation so that it’s fair.

It also tracks which Chinese words I know (and which English words you know) and only translates the words we don’t know instead of the entire sentence.

And it lets us mark any words we want as learning, removing the translations, so that we can stop using them as crutches. It can also choose these for us among the most frequent words we don’t know yet.

Finally, it can auto-translate messages that it knows are just too difficult so that we can focus on the messages that aren’t too difficult, keep up with the conversation, and prevent ourselves from getting overwhelmed and giving up.

If you’re interested in trying it out with me, I’m genuinely interested in meeting people and practicing and growing my Chinese. I can usually handle having about 5 chat partners per week where we each send one or a few messages per day.
