Introduction:

Chinese is a group of language varieties that form the Sinitic branch of the Sino-Tibetan languages, spoken by the ethnic Han Chinese majority and many minority ethnic groups in Greater China. About 1.3 billion people (or approximately 16% of the world’s population) speak a variety of Chinese as their first language. It’s Considered One of the Hardest Languages to Learn. 

Learning Chinese in 6 months won’t be that easy but on the other hand, it won’t be impossible too! Your motivation, your dedication, your practice will determine how long you will take to learn Chinese. Suppose you practice for one hour daily then in 6 months maybe you will not be fluent in Chinese but definitely, you will be able to talk in Chinese. Now going to classes, visiting a tutor, going out, and buying books take a lot of time. And sometimes it’s really tough to make out time for all these things in between your daily schedule. For this reason, many people prefer to take the help of an app to learn Chinese.

Now in many cases a question arises whether you can learn Chinese in 6 months through an app. In this case, the answer may vary from person to person and it also depends on what type of app you are choosing for learning Chinese. Let me discuss a few points regarding this.

Advantages of using an app for studying Chinese:

• This is your best option to learn Chinese online and that too from the comfort of your home. 
• It makes your life and learning both easier.
• You are much more relaxed and mentally you are ready to learn. And this creates a positive impact, as we know a peaceful mind maximizes your learning capacities.
