Interactive Chinese Podcast: Listening & Shadowing — Free Sample

This is a free sample of Interactive Chinese Podcast: Listening & Shadowing. It’s a preview of a course I’m creating for intermediate and upper-intermediate Chinese learners. My goal is to make it easy for you to practice listening and speaking at home, whenever you have time. Using authentic Chinese podcast episodes, I’ll guide you through listening and shadowing exercises to help you understand natural spoken Chinese and speak more fluently. After trying this sample, please leave a comment below and tell me what you think. Which parts helped you? What would you like me to improve or add? Your feedback will help me create the full course.

Hello, everyone! Welcome to the free sample lesson of Interactive Chinese Podcast.

I created this course to bring technology into your Chinese learning, so you can practice more effectively whenever it suits you. I’ve combined my own experience learning foreign languages with my years of teaching Mandarin to design this interactive podcast course.


The course has two main goals. The first is to help you improve your listening. You can listen while following the transcript and replay sentences as often as you need. The second is to help you practice speaking. After listening to a sentence, you can repeat it aloud and see what the speech recognition picked up, giving you more opportunities to speak Chinese.


I hope you enjoy the course! After trying the sample lesson, please leave a comment below with your suggestions or tell me what you thought of the experience. I’d really love to hear from you.

Thank you, and happy learning!

Your Chinese Teacher

Katrina 😊
