Learning Chinese just got easier with the introduction of our newest site feature: practice speaking lessons. These experimental new lessons are part of our ongoing efforts to create the most innovative and affordable environment for learning Chinese online. They are easy to use and inexpensive to boot. Access comes bundled with our existing premium subscription and all you need to start talking is a working telephone.

How exactly are we going to give you feedback on your spoken Chinese? Just click through to our text section and follow the instructions there. We provide a toll-free telephone number you can use to call us, along with a lesson-specific PIN number we will use to identify you. Start telling us about yourself when prompted, and when you're finished we'll queue your recording for review by one of our professional CSL teachers. They'll listen to it during working hours here in Beijing and get back to you with feedback by email. You did sign up with a valid email address, right?

Please note that because of the extra workload providing individual feedback places on our staff, this feature is reserved for premium subscribers. If you like the sound of giving us the sound of your Chinese, and getting full access to the best-darn-Chinese-learning-platform-known-to-man, head over to your account page and upgrade to a premium subscription. And if you want even more one-on-one attention, consider signing up for our private telephone tutoring service.
