Why learn Mandarin Chinese?

Most people know that Mandarin Chinese is fast becoming one of the most important languages in the world. But people believe also that it is a very hard language to learn.

However, as a non native-speaker myself, I know that you CAN learn to speak and understand (even write,if you want to) this beautiful and valuable language fluently!. I have learnt the hard way what works and what doesn’t – and how incredibly satisfying the journey can be.
