Welcome to ChinesePod!

ChinesePod is the best way to learn Chinese.

Period.

Don't believe us? Ask our 200,000+ registered users, or the 300,000 people who come to ChinesePod every month. Don't believe them? Ask the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Economist, CNN, NBC, Time, the Financial Times, NPR, the South China Morning Post, China Daily, the Irish Times, or the Sydney Morning Herald. Or ask the National Office For Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language (NOCFL) -- The Office of Chinese Language Council International -- with whom we are partners.

Chinese is an intimidating language -- characters, four tones, mounds of vocabulary -- but we make it fun. With ChinesePod you'll be speaking Chinese in a few minutes, and conversing in a few weeks. You'll be learning real Chinese -- the kind of Chinese spoken by more than a billion people -- from a team of experts. You can take our podcasts with you anywhere you go, and then come back to ChinesePod.com to review and reinforce what you've learned. Each lesson -- we have more than 1000, with more every single day -- will add to your growing knowledge of Chinese and your growing confidence with the language.

Soon you won't be learning Chinese anymore. You'll be living it.
