HelenD Posted July 1, 2015 at 01:02 PM Report Posted July 1, 2015 at 01:02 PM More people now seem to be using FluentU for teaching and learning Chinese. It’s a very rich resource of authentic/semi-authentic listening and vocabulary and the basic membership is free. It would be really helpful if users could use this thead to share tips about good Fluentu resources that worked well for specific things. Have you found anything good that worked well – as a teacher or a learner? For starters, I found ‘Gravity Zero’ (4 videos making a mini-soap) worked really well as an end-of-year activity and the 4 episodes (plus occasional language and culture discussion) fit neatly into a one-hour lesson.

Tianjin42 Posted July 2, 2015 at 12:00 AM Report Posted July 2, 2015 at 12:00 AM HelenD, can I ask if you yourself have any links to this FluentU group? Quote
HelenD Posted July 2, 2015 at 06:59 AM Author Report Posted July 2, 2015 at 06:59 AM No, none at all! I'm a teacher & learner of Mandarin in UK & was recently discussing this resource with other teachers. We thought pooling our experience might make this tool more useful Quote
RyanGarg Posted July 3, 2015 at 06:58 AM Report Posted July 3, 2015 at 06:58 AM Thanks Helen for sharing this info. I am studying Chinese and wondering if there is any resource for translation of for a sentence or paragraph, like a voice translator. Quote
