-––👋 About Me–––

Hi I'm Danyo.

At 30 years old, I couldn't speak Mandarin Chinese.

Now I'm 35, and I'm living my dream life and teaching others Chinese.

Traditional methods failed me. Self-education healed me.

I spent 12+ years training and working as a medical doctor in Canada but in 2019 I burned out. I quit my job to pursue my passion to learn Mandarin Chinese in Taiwan.

I went from being afraid to speak to having multi-hour conversations with native speakers after 1 year of immersing myself in the language.

Now I spend my time in Taiwan teaching others to improve level their Mandarin speaking fast using the Copy Paste Speak System ™.

I share the best tips and resources for learning Chinese every week.

Follow along with the full Chinese transcript here: https://danyopang.substack.com/p/learn-chinese-after-break

After a long hiatus, I catch up with my good friend and fellow Chinese learner, Tom, in Mandarin about life, getting back into learning Chinese after taking a break, long-distance hiking, speaking confidence, and more.

Click on the transcript button under the video or use the embedded captions to follow along for some Mandarin input.

The captions and transcripts are automatically generated so there will be some mistakes but for the most part they are pretty accurate.

These episodes are more laid-back and a great excuse for us to practice speaking Mandarin, try out new vocabulary, and make mistakes.

My hope is that sharing it here will inspire others to speak more, make mistakes, and improve faster.

Everyone loves showing themselves speaking perfect Mandarin but that's not always the reality.

Before we can speak well, we need to practice a lot in a safe environment and make a lot of mistakes.

Speaking is not about performance. Speaking is an opportunity to practice and play with the language.

When you enjoy using the language, you inevitably improve.

If you want to improve your speaking, here are some ways I can help:

* Speaking Template: The exact template I used every day to improve my spoken Mandarin and make vocabulary stick.

* Copy Paste Speak: The 8-step system that helped me understand and speak real-life Mandarin (not textbook Chinese) in 6 months without memorizing tons of vocabulary.

* Chinese Speakers: Get 1-on-1 help from me to improve your listening, speaking, pronunciation, and conversations with fun daily exercises, personal feedback and a supportive community. Because I work with each learner personally I can only take a limited number of spots. Join the waitlist here.
