Make Chinese Your Daily Companion!

Get hold of some CDs which you can then play while driving your

car, or while relaxing at home

Another way of helping yourself to learn the language more

effectively is by using flashcards, which can be extremely helpful.

However, when using this system, it is also important that youpractice each word that you learn by using it in sentences..

Persistence is the key. Say you have learned something, then you

should not stop studying it or repeating what you have learned,

otherwise you will find that you will forget it.

Do NOT throw away your "Old" elementary textbook!

Tips for Continued Learning

1. By integrating new items with material that is more familiar to

you, it will make the foundation of your learning much stronger.

2. A good idea is to create a concept map, which will then help

you to analyze characters or those groups of characters which are

similar. However, it is important that the groups of charactersshould have the same sort of meaning, and should be created in

the following types of clusters.

a. Words which fit into the same sort of pattern.

b. Those characters which share the same sort of radical or

same sort of phonetic (similar pronunciation) components.

c. Those characters which share any other type ofcomponent that is similar.

d. Look at placing those characters together which have a

shared idea, such as colors, activities or places.

3. Create yourself a hierarchical chart that is able to break down

single characters into much smaller and also more meaningful

components.

4. Create yourself a mnemonic device which will then help you to

remember particular parts of your character. One way ofremembering it is through using a picture, which will suggest the

characters particular strokes.

5. After each lesson, it is best if you review what you have been

taught 15 minutes afterwards. In studies carried out, it has been

shown that those students who carry out a review of what theyhave been taught shortly afterwards are able to retain the

information much better.

6. Read out loud. Reading out loud is not only a great way for you topractice what you are learning, but will help you to discoverparticular words and phrases which you may have not mastered asyet. Also, when it comes time to read out loud what you have beenlearning in classroom environment, you will find it much easier to do.

7. Rather than studying for long periods of time, just study a littleeach day, especially before you are due to take a test. By doing this,you will find that it makes it much easier for you to learn thelanguage, rather than having to spend time cramming at the end justbefore you are about to take the test. Certainly you are more likely toretain more information using this method.

8. Rather than carrying out the learning of any new vocabulary inone long session, you should instead break it up into several smallsessions. You can do this while travelling to school or work, or evenwhen you are waiting in line to pay for your groceries.

9. The most effective way for anyone to learn Chinese characters is throughmemorizing them. A great way of doing this is through writing them down.However, instead of writing the same word down over and over again, youshould write each word down once or twice before you move on to the nextone. Then you need to go through the list again until you have carried outthe number of repetitions as required by your instructor. Doing this actuallyhelps to put the words more firmly in to your mind and memory.

10. If you can, practice things with a study partner. You can do this bygetting each of you to read a line, and then get the other person to respond(but you must not use your books or study notes). Then, in order for you tounderstand what has been said, you should each then provide a responsein English.

11. Also, when you are reading Chinese, and in order to understand thecharacters better, a person should cover up the pinyin while they arereading the text. If you are unsure of what a character is, then write downsome notes on a separate piece of paper which you can then refer back tolater.
