Mandarin Corner
Immersion is one of the most effective ways to learn a language, yet it can be difficult to immerse yourself in the Chinese language. Mandarin Corner is a decent alternative if complete immersion isn't possible. This YouTube channel promises to deliver a more immersive experience by producing films that are totally in Mandarin, allowing you to concentrate on the Chinese language without being distracted by English.
The channel is aimed at students in the upper beginner to intermediate levels. It covers traditional themes like vocabulary and grammar, but it also includes some unique features like reading practice, podcasts, and slow Chinese storytelling.
The Chinese words and their meanings are usually displayed on-screen during listening activities, making it easier to follow along and/or study keywords and phrases. "My Life as a Factory Girl in China – Intermediate Chinese Listening Practice," for example, provides simple listening practice while teaching factory-related vocabulary.
