At the beginning of a language...
It's a daunting task ahead; I'm about to acquire a new language.
My effort is towards (this doesn't sound quite right. Maybe "My efforts are focused on...") Chinese (Mandarin); I have my reasons, but the biggest one is simply that it's the largest language by far.
After using various apps and podcast for perhaps 5-6 montsh, the progress with this approach only goes so far. My conclusion is that further immersion is needed, so now the online sessions with teachers and tutors begin.
I have to say "hats off" to the patience and skills of those that chose to teach; it has to be horrible listening to grownups struggling with language at the level of a two year old child for any length of time.
However, as a student I am having the time of my life. It's super fun and exiting to experience ("watch a new language unfold" or "experience a new language") a new language unfold, and I am a bit annoyed I did not start this earlier!
Good luck with Chinese!
