"Like a rockstar teacher. Excellent for beginners. Entertaining, too!" --Socialmandarin.com

"The coolest Chinese teacher out there. Totally rad!"--Confusedlaowai.com

My name is Mike Laoshi (Teacher Mike). I must warn you that my teaching style is highly addictive, so if you have a family, career or social life, you may want to put those on hold for a little while.

Why Chinese with Mike? "Chinese with Mike" is 100% new and breaks with traditional Chinese curricula. Using my witty sense of humor, mixed with a logical, step-by-step approach, I shield learners from the unnecessary complexities of Chinese. Through a blend of 60 short, highly addictive video lessons, a coursebook and audio, I'll teach you essential Chinese in no time. More importantly, you get a little one-on-one action with ME, as I make learning Chinese ridiculously easy--and fun!

What will I learn? Season 1: Covers pinyin, the four tones and writing system, common words, phrases, and typical conversations. In no time you'll be able to talk about yourself, your family, your friends, your job, your home, your dogs and cats. Think I'm lying? Check the Table of Contents. Season 2: If I didn't include Season 2 in the book, you wouldn't be able to tell people you can speak Chinese, you like to play basketball, or you want to eat beef fried rice. More importantly, you wouldn't even know how to ask permission to use the bathroom! Trust me, without Season 2 you wouldn't get very far in life.
