4. Learn Mandarin Chinese from youku/tudou

If you are new to China, then you probably are not familiar with youku and tudou. They are the biggest video platforms in China. They are very similar to youtube. You can watch lots of Chinese TV show, news and movie there for free. They will provide the subtitle for some of the shows as well. So it’s a very good free platform for you to get used to the real and standard Chinese accent.

    I was wondering if you may be able to help me:
    I’m an American teaching English in Nanchang. Until recently, I had used a free VPN to keep in touch with friends in the US on FaceBook, but more importantly, I would watch movies at night on YouTube. I know about Youku, but I can not read it. Is there a free movie site online tat can be accessed here that can also allow me an English listing? I love Chinese movies, but would love to know what I am watching. Any and all consideration is appreciated. Xiexie ni.
