If you are interested in learning about a challenge that I am hosting for the next 10 days with awesome prizes and tasks to help you stay committed, then keep on listening.   Hi! ? I am Amy Lin. I have been working as an online 1-on-1 Mandarin Chinese tutor for the last 5 years or so (2 years as a community tutor, and 3 years as a “professional” teacher). I absolutely love what I do. I LOVE meeting people from all over the world and help them with their Mandarin Chinese, and this is coming from an introvert! Well, a bubbly introvert to be exact...If that makes any sense ?.   With this 10-Day Mandarin Chinese Challenge for Beginners, I hope to help more learners get started (or even restart) learning Mandarin Chinese. The goal of this challenge is to build a studying habit, and hopefully have fun learning too!   The main goal of the challenge is to complete 4 lessons created by me in the next 10 days. Each lesson is less than 10 minutes. To help you stay committed to this challenge, I have added some prizes and a checklist of tasks to complete if you want to increase your chance of winning. Check out the details at https://ChineseMandarinCafe.com/Challenge   I recently went through a challenge that I was 120% committed to and the result was AMAZING. I hope to bring you a similar experience, but ultimately only YOU can make it happen! ? The top 3 prizes are point-based, so the more effort you put in, the more points you earn, and thus increase your chance of winning the top prize!   I am not including the prizes here because the real priceless prize is what you will learn and experience in this challenge, I hope ?. Alright, for more details, please check out https://ChineseMandarinCafe.com/Challenge   If you have any questions, you can reach me at Amy@ChineseMandarinCafe.com
