What is ChinesePod?
ChinesePod is the global leader in Mandarin Chinese training, delivering the most convenient, fun and effective way to fit learning into your day. ChinesePod consists of three key components: audio lessons, online/mobile study tools and teacher services.
The Core Idea
Busy adults traditionally fare poorly in sticking with language classes. Web and mobile technologies help solve this problem by deconstructing the traditional learning experience and then re-constructing it around the student's normal, daily routine. By bringing the learning to the student on their terms, ChinesePod helps learners take advantage of down time, travel time and other pockets of "empty time".
About Us
ChinesePod was established in September 2005. We are located in Shanghai, China.
The Team
