For Chinese study, the study method plays a critical role, it determines whether it is easy or difficult, effective or ineffective, success or failure.
Starting from PinYin to learn Chinese is a Chinese study method that has been used for decades worldwide, but it is not an effective way, actually it is a wrong way.
Firstly, PinYin letters are the same as English letters, so foreigners read PinYin with English sounds and tones, and it is difficult to change.
PinYin study requires to remember each word’s tone. A tone is an index of PinYin standard 4-tone sequence, if learners can’t pronounce the standard 4-tone sequence, they can’t tell/read the index (tone).
Secondly, starting from PinYin, foreign students normally consider PinYin as a Chinese language replacement, and are reluctant to learn Chinese characters/words. As a result, many foreign students are not able to read Chinese even after a long time study.
Thirdly, PinYin input does not help to practice and memorize Chinese writing, but does gradually erase the memory of words’ writing.
These are the 3 main reasons why the PinYin Chinese study method is wrong. Actually, it is PinYin method that makes Chinese hard to learn.
The HeChinese Study Method take a different approach to learn Chinese. We learn writing and typing with HeInput component system. We learn pronunciation directly with the Rainbow pattern (without PinYin and tones). We memorize sounds and meanings of words by reciting short sentences.
In HeChinese, learning Chinese takes 4 steps:
Step 1: 4-6 hours, getting completed knowledge & skills of Chinese writing and typing through the HeInput components system.
Step 2: 4-6 hours, speaking directly from Chinese words to learn native Chinese pronunciation (With the Rainbow pronunciation pattern).
Step 3: Reciting short sentences to remember the sounds and meanings of Chinese words.
Step 4: 8 hours, learning PinYin knowledge and skills after finishing HeBook1 and speaking 300 words fluently.
In year 2022, we organized 16 online 2-week bootcamps, over 3,000 learners participated, in 2-week many learners got:
1. Beautiful Chinese writing; 2. Fast HeInput typing for all words and phrases; 3. Fluent reading / reciting 10 short sentences in native Chinese tone; 4. A full set of Chinese study skills, and a solid base for further quick study.
HeChinese has been approved to be a easy, fast and effective way to learn Chinese.
