What is the best way to learn Chinese for a first time learner?

I’m a college student wanting to learn Chinese for the first time. What is the best way to start learning Chinese? I want to be fluent at reading/writing/conversation in a couple years, and I’m determined to learn. Any help? Thank you!

  3. You shouldn’t worry at all. In reality, there are so many ways for you to learn Chinese. But in my opinion, I suggest you enroll in a Chinese learning school which provides you with online Chinese language lessons. It is a better option for you. You can log on eChineseLearning, which is the online school I mentioned. I think it would be one of your best choices to help you to learn Chinese well. You might as well have a try.

  4. You must attend a university in China or Hong Kong! But 2 years? I doubt unless you are super smart! Hang out with some Chinese chicks will do the trick as well!
    Why? Wanna to join the CIA? They are looking for the Chinese speaking agents!

  5. There are a lot of Chinese volunteers to help you to learn Chinese online. You only need to install skype to call volunteers. They always stay online to wait for you.
