Hello and welcome back to the I’m Learning Mandarin podcast.
On today’s episode, I have a really insightful chat with one of our Peak Mandarin students, Lewys Thomas.
Lewys has been learning Chinese for a few years but recently realised despite getting a tonne of input his speaking wasn’t improving.
After coming across my blog, he reached out for help and is now thankfully well on track to acing his speaking goals.
One of the most interesting things to come out of my conversation with Lewys was his admission that when he first saw a video of me speaking fluent Chinese, he felt a pang of jealousy, like I was doing something that was beyond his abilities.
But what he’s since been able to do is to channel that jealousy into something much more productive: curiousity.
And after becoming curious and opening his mind to learning about how we became fluent in Chinese, he began putting these methods into practice himself and things really started changing for Lewys.
So we get into all of that later in the interview but to start with, I began by asking Lewys how his Chinese learning journey all started.
