Real examples, clear reasoning, and practical ideas to make everyday conversations feel smoother.

A) Theme vocab + sentence frames B) Speaking-first (keep characters ~2–3 lessons behind) C) Daily native input (10 min) D) Right-size goal 🎙️ The Bitesize Chinese Podcast helps you bridge the gap between classroom Mandarin and how people actuallyspeak — with all the quirks, slang, and culture that come with it.
