What we’re about
This group is for students of Mandarin Chinese. Native speakers and advanced students are more than welcome. We'll strive to balance speaking in Mandarin Chinese with speaking about Mandarin Chinese. You are welcome whether you are a casual hobbyist or a full-time student. This group is a social group focused on language learning, cultural enrichment, and language exchange.
Unsolicited Messages - Writing people on Meetup whom you haven't met is against our policies. Meetup is for meeting people at events. If you receive a message from somebody you haven't met or experience anything that makes you uncomfortable, please let the leadership team know. We want to ensure everyone feels safe, welcome, and comfortable.
Harassment - This group does not tolerate sexual harassment or other forms of harassment. Please do not come to this group expressly looking for a date. If you meet someone you like at an event, that's fine. Please be respectful of any cultural differences.
Discrimination - This group welcomes all Chinese learners and Chinese speakers regardless of nationality, race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, etc.
