Learn Chinese with Skype

Sorry, 3 weeks without a post, there's no excuse (although I do have plenty).

My friend Simon came to visit from Nanjing this week and told me about his new website - www.chinesetutor.net - which offers personal Chinese tutoring by means of internet phone programs such as Skype and MSN. You buy the lessons on the website through PayPal, then arrange a time for your lesson with one of the tutors. Then simply log on at the scheduled time and enjoy your personal Chinese lesson!

I think it's a great idea, especially for students outside of China, who might find it difficult to converse with native Mandarin speakers. They also offer a wide range of Chinese textbooks, electronic dictionaries and other accessories. Check it out.

Oh, for some reason the site is blocked in China, you may need to use a proxy. Try anonymouse.
