Context Learning Compass
The Context Learning Compass is a one-hour video Deep Dive which teaches advanced Mandarin learners, and Chinese language teachers, how to apply context-based learning methodology to news-based content as a language learning tool.
It's essentially the process I use to create the Slow Chinese newsletter every week since February 2021.

How will it help you?
This Masterclass will help you:
