She speak Chinese (second language) faster than her English (native language) 😂

i honestly love how she flips between chinese and english mid-sentence.

My first chinese teacher used to say in order to really learn a character you need to forget how to write it 7 times. I think copying the character over and over it's good method but it's quite easy to forget it after even a short period of time. You should try to retrieve it from memory and write it down without looking at it. Also try and practice writing 1 character once then another character once and then go back to the first one, its a good way to strenghten your memory and speed up the forgetting process.

雪莲小姐 I just KNOW you took hours to edit this video. I appreciate your efforts and I want you to know that you’re one of the best KZfaqrs that do Chinese videos

太谢谢你了，我住在德国来自巴基斯坦的， 在中国上了5年的大学和已经通过HSK6。看了你的视频给我带来很多新的学中文的方法。因为我不要忘记中文，所以得要每天学一点点就行了。我把Chinese-English pop up 词典已经下载加上我Chrome for windows了。 谢谢 🙏

Her:alot of vocabulary Me:I can do that Her:shows inside of textbook Me:tf o hell naww

i’m studying korean and your tips fit me so well. i’ve been studying a bunch of vocabulary. i’m an extreme beginner lol but i’m doing well so far ❤️❤️

Ahhhh, you became my favorite KZfaqr! It's so hard to find foreigners that speak Chinese on KZfaq. Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

her: is an american learning chinese me: hong konger repeating everything she said in english practicing my nearly-american accent lol we’re literally going for opposite goals

Hi guys! As someone who has been studying Chinese for 7 years but has never been able to reach that fluency level the most important thing you have to do is go to China! Go for a few a months to speak Chinese all day everyday and after that you'll actually be able to comprehend Chinese fluently. Most fluent foreigners studied Chinese in China or lived there, if you only study Chinese in your home country, no matter how much you try you will not be able to become fluent. Chinese is not like studying English or Italian, you won't be able to speak like JJ or other KZfaqrs without interacting and being exposed around mandarin on a daily basis. If you have the time and resources spend a few semester in a Chinese speaking city, it will be the greatest reward for yourself! Thank you JJ for the great video, your advises are incredible ❤︎

wow that chrome extension really just changed my life. thank you!!

As a Vietnamese i still find it hard to pronounce Chinese but you are an American whose language does not have intonations. I really admire you.

You're amazing, I can speak Chinese, Spanish, Korean and English, but you're the QUEEN. I RESPECT YOU SO MUCH! My favourite youtuber since today.

雪莲中文说的非常好，人又漂亮加油💪

JJ rules, because her tips work for any language. No fluff. No sponsored "reviews". No fake shortcuts. Straight to the point, real instructions. And if a book/video of thousands of vocabulary words intimates you... Do 15 a day, just 15. That's over 5,000 words by the end of the year. Small (consistent) steps ---> Big results.

你说中文和英文都很清晰，很适合当语言老师😄

WOW. Her chinese isn’t fluent. It’s Native.

Wow your pronunciation is so good. You literally sound like my chinese friends and the actors in tv. So cool.

I always feel like she drinks 10 cups of coffee before doing these videos. So energetic ❤

You look like you came straight out of 20s flickers😍 Love it when you switch between the two languages

雪蓮真的說中了學習中文的要點。和唐朝大文韓愈的主張相同：文從字順就是文法。由業餘的中文愛好者說出來，真是太天才了！

谢谢! This was so helpful 😁

Omg, i was skipping through your video, and then you talked about that incredible chrome extension. Thank you very much, you just upgraded my whole life.

You are so adorable and eloquent. I laughed so much at the HSK test explanation haha 🤣 keep this up ♥️ 加油!

Omgggggg you’re such a QUEEN

Really, you helped me so much with my Chinese! I‘ll make a video soon where I talk about my Chinese learning journey and I‘ll definitely mention you‘🥰

YOU. ARE. BRILLIANT. You seriously sound so good, pronunciation and everything! Such an inspiration 💗 Small youtuber here😆

Thanks for the mention! Love your videos, and please keep up the great work :D

雪蓮你是我在youtube上面看到的美國youtuber第一個女生，也是第一個講中文非常流利，唱歌又特別有韻味的美女。

This is so helpful, thank you so much!

我一中文母语也看完了你的视频，你中文很棒，也给了我很多如何教我小朋友中文很多灵感。会继续关注你！

I loved this video, I found it really useful, thank you, 谢谢你!! By the way I really like your desk ahahah 😂

I need to learn mandarin cuz i want to watch c dramas without subtle lol

I love how u switch to English or Chinese so naturally 😶💜

This is so inspiring. Well done. I’m learning Chinese myself atm.

JJ keep them coming. 我学习了三年汉语。我是英国人。我真的喜欢你的视频! Watch alot of foreign Chinese KZfaq speakers (though there aren't loads!) you remind me of 小马 because of your speaking pace and also the really solid and down to earth advice. Thanks for the inspiration.

你 好 我 是 Gabriel 我住 在 中国，重庆我今年 十 五岁。我 正 在 学 习 中文 ，我喜欢你的影片.

Thank you so much for this video...谢谢你 ！ 很有意思！

love u 😘💕 i hope your channel will be known by more people. it's so inspirational

I found your channel a few days ago and subscribed straight away... I've been self teaching for a year and feel like I'm getting no where.. Fast! So I'm hugely thankful to have found your channel... Its the guidance I've very much needed.. 谢谢你 🤗😁

What do you use to do your subtitles? I LOVE when there are double subtitles for language videos. Thank you! You are so inspiring.

I personally think if you could speak Chinese in a more relax way, I mean more naturally not intentionally, your spoken Chinese would be improved to a higher level. By the way, every single Chinese word you speak sounds so clear and the pronunciation and intonation are so native!!! you are really a good language-learner!!!

Your Chinese is very fluent!! I like the way that you naturally switch on and off between two languages :) 很赞👍

Wow, this video was so helpful. I love how you enunciate so well in both languages, and appreciate all the editing and subtitles. Insta-subbed! Love the content!

Her Chinese is 100% fluent, grammar 100%, native 95% ( a bit tone maybe~ ) , amazing as a foreigner .

great job, great content. I'm also a mandarin student, have HSK 5 and recently graduated with a bachelor of mandarin chinese. would be cool to do a video about chinese language like tones, common errors chinese learners make etc. just a suggestion, now imposing or anything like that lol. anyways great stuff keep it up.

i just found your videos and they're pretty helpful. I learnt english in middle school and so on because it's common to people from Mexico to learn it or if it's possible, french, german or italian, but I've been interested in korean and japanese before but I just didn't click with those languages, I like them, their cultures etc but it was too much for me, this year with the pandemic I set my mind into learning chinese because I actually love it and your videos made me realize it's possible, so here I am, a native spanish speaker learning chinese watching videos in english LOL please keep doing these videos! they really inspire me to keep learning more and more and I'm thankful of the resources you shared !! Stay healthy!

When you watch tv shows in Chinese, do you use the English subtitles? Or did you use to when you were a beginner?

you can totally just practice listening and learn to speak.It's not an urge to write it at the same time.Chinese is not like English, character doesn't relate too much to pronunciation.Even a Chinese kid always masters listening and speaking first before school age and spends a few years learning how to write at school.That's the most native way to Chinese learning.And when you focus on writing,take it as an art.Every Chinese character has a story for you to explore,especially for traditional Chinese character.Feel free to ask me about Chinese learning,I am happy with that.From a native mainland Chinese.

Oh my God! So good. Thanks for your sharing

I really appreciate you for sharing your tips! Your Chinese is awesome! Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing your way of studying mandarin! right now I’m learning mandarin too and I just find it so confusing where to start learning 😣your Channel is such a great guidance for me to find tips and how to learn mandarin ❤️one day I’ll as fluent as you do! I’ll always support your channel thank you so much for keep making good content like this!❤️❤️❤️❤️

说得这么快这么流利… 真的很厉害👍👍👍

wow 你的中文感觉已经非常可以了

Great video and great teacher。好的老师，好的视频！

I am not learning Chinese ( maybe somewhere in the future) , but your video was so interesting to watch ! and your tips I can also use for Japanese and Korean. So thank you:) Great video! And your Chinese sounds very impressive.

好厲害，中文講得很好

小姐姐说得很棒了！

Your learning aptitude is marvellous! You can be successful in anything.

希望雪蓮有機會多發視頻。多分享你的人生經驗、價值觀給不同背景的人參考。你有很好的想法、又有喜感。追求人生有目標、也非常正面。一定會有更多的人會喜歡的。

你的中文很好！ very good

Thanks for the tips, this was very useful. :) I had the goal of learning 3 new French words a day but I think I wasn't repeating them enough and I would abandon them when they'd inevitably be forgotten. I was thinking that maybe it might be even easier if I learn new words within the context of an expression? That might actually help me retain their meaning and how to use them, what do you think?

Super practical advice, thank you!

Thank you so much! You are so cool! I adore watching you! Your Chinese sounds so fleunt, I want to speak it that well too 😭 thank you for you great advices 🙏 With your videos i learn not only Chinese but English as well 🙆‍♀️💁‍♀️ 💕

建议可以先把”偏旁部首”记熟，这样对记词汇有帮助，加油💪🏻

Well to be honest writing characters is a completely what of time when you have the basics down. Think about it, you learn 20 words a day, and you writing each of them several times. Multiply this by one year and this is a huge amount of time that could be spend on everything more useful. Why is it useless then? Because unless your profession or school need you to write characters you're not gonna do it in China. So the basics first 500 is enough. 2) you're gonna forget how to write unless you use srs which I don't recommend because overwise you're gonna spend much more time

Jill, I was watching two of your older videos just now, and was getting ready to ask you in the comments to please share a lesson with us, or a series! Without some help to get started, it's too difficult to know if it's worth it to hire a lao shi. Then you go and post this, I'm so happy! Xiexie!

Wow, im from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 and im currently studying in China. Im back in my country now due to COVID-19 but will return next year. Ive been trying to better my Chinese because i just am so fond of the Chinese language and i want to be able to speak fluently. You are such an inspiration. I will definitely use your studying technique. I just love how your so fluent 👏🏽😍.

我也好想要兩國語言輪流換的如此流利🤣🥺🥺

すごい、英語からの中国語の切り替え！私が待っていた動画だ

OMG :) 你的中文非常好。你会说流利的中文。I swear you are my inspiration. I hope my Chinese will be as good as yours :)

Thank you! I just graduated from college and needed new ways to study Chinese on my own.

What HSK level are you if I may ask？ I'm around HSK 4 but I still can't speak ass fluidly as you. I really need to practice speaking more since I have no issues with reading, writing and understanding for the most part. You speak really well!

Hey, do you have any tips for speaking mandarin? I always get tripped up on my words whenever I speak, plus I’m not sure how to put intonation separate to the tones themselves, if that makes any sense. Love the video ^.^

I really appreciate your videos. I'm Chinese American and I was not raised to learn Chinese. Any instruction on learning Chinese is so helpful. Thank you. You are amazing at the language and so inspiring.

I‘m a native Chinese-speaking person. Thanks for your sharing! I appreciate your hard work :) I think the way you learn Chinese is also the way which I learn English. Memorising vocabulary is important!

你好，我在学英文。我觉得我的英文水平和你的中文水平一样。一起加油

I have a problem where even if I memorize words as soon as I put it in a sentence, I end up transliterating from English or using it in an awkward way instead of saying it how a Chinese would. What should I do to say things like a Chinese? Also how do you remember the tones? Thanks xx

JJ, thanks for the suggestions on books and KZfaq channels. I love your videos. Keep up the great work!

New here I have been trying to learn chinese since last November. The vocabulary is one thing but the grammar is driving me crazy and hanzi. I am glad I found your channel.

雪蓮 妳的中文很好 讚

哈哈, I didn't know that there was a Chinese word for "flabbergasted", gonna have to remember that one!🤣

你的中文说得真好，我也要努力学习英语啦

我也正在学习中文。你的中文很好呀！ 一起加油吧☺

你的视频真的很有用 所以我给你点赞👍，订阅 谢谢你 你漂亮

i love it， im a Spanish native speaker and I'm learning Korean and Chinese, your videos are really helpful

Hey Jillian! I have a question. Do you think it is useful to learn Chinese with Pinyin first or to learn the chinese characters at the same time with the vocabulary?

Omg !! the zhongwen dictionary is mind blowing !! Thank you for the tipsss

Do you think you really need to be able to write the characters now that we all just type everything?? Wouldn’t it be a better use of study time to work on recognition/saying it correctly?

你中文已经很好了，不过有个问题就是每个字都发得太清楚了，有点用力过猛的感觉。有些地方如果能模糊一点，一笔带过会更好，这样显得更自然。

你已经说的非常好了，表达很流畅！加油！！！

妳的中文說的真好👍！

你好！我是泰国人🇹🇭。我要学汉文。你说汉文得太好。I will try more and more. Thank you for your suggestion. 😊😊

I failed English E8 even after retaking... I think it's the composition. I couldn't make it

你很勤力！keep work hard is so important!

謝謝你的分享! 很有幫助的

记单词 or 背单词 will make you sound more like a native. :)

好奇怪，我已经很久没有学习英文的冲动了，但是看一个美国人学中文的视频，开始产生学英语的冲动了，而且我很不喜欢学单词，谢谢你！

I've been meaning to watch you for a long time but i am hesitant to watch youtubers who are studying chinese because i compare myself to them (especially if they are more fluent than me) but I'm trying to get over that. The tones over characters is such a great idea. I definitely need to practice my tones!

Thank you!, you have a lot of great methods.
