Beautiful and very useful

Keep up the good work thank you so much for this, it really helped me tremendously with my Cantonese learning

Beautiful and clear voice

I lived in Hong Kong for 18 months but am American. I picked up quite a bit there but have since forgotten almost everything (it was 6 years ago!). This podcast so clearly helps me remember phrases and more! Love it and thank you! 🇭🇰

Very helpful

Great for daily Cantonese practice!

Great!

Great podcast! I enjoy listening to Jade’s podcasts and they are of high quality. She makes it easy to learn, has clear pronunciation and a pleasant sound of voice. Also glad there are no ads, hope she doesn’t change that soon! Even if she does, I’ll still be a loyal subscriber and learner. I’m sure my canton will improve quickly with her lessons!

Good content but

Good content but someone in editing thought it would be a good idea to add reverb to the recording. Yes, reverb on language learning audio. The first episodes’ pronunciation are too difficult to hear; I abandoned the podcast. It might work for those with less sensitive hearing.

Simple, easy and to the point

I've been slowly learning Cantonese for 5 or 6 years. Picking up this word or that phrase from people, apps and podcasts but this podcast is the best. I can keep listening to one episode and practicing that one until I can move onto the next. The episodes are direct and to the point. Everything is broken down well and you know exactly what each word they're saying means.
Uhhhhjh

Great podcast

I think this is a really helpful podcast for ABC like me. It helps to reinforce things I knew throughout childhood but lost throughout the years. Thanks for the short and daily lessons!
DannyGong

Definitely good for ABC peeps

I'm a podcast fanatic but this is my first ever podcast review. I've listened to other language podcasts and found them helpful. But this Cantonese podcast cuts right through the chase and just focuses on 4-5 sentences for each lesson in under a minute. The repetition and practice sentence is logical and can be picked up quickly. I really like the transcript of the Traditional Chinese and the Romanized lettering as well as the pronunciation numbers. It's the Instagram/Twitter or language learning. Keep up the awesome work. Hope you do this for other Asian languages like: Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Thailand etc...
