普通话

I started taking Mandarin classes about a month ago. We do like 4-5 hours every week, plus the time each person spends studying at home, which, in my case, isn't a lot (Law books are time suckers).

However, my classmates seem to be very obtuse, and our teacher has decided to adapt to their dumbness and slow down her rhythm until a point I feel like I'm wasting my time.

I'd like to make some progress by myself, but I'm really lost as to what should I do from now. Yes, I could study hanzi like a madman, but I don't think learning random words would be useful at all. What about grammar, for example? Common phrases? Well, hopefully you'll be able to give me a hand.

Also, if, by coincidence, any Chinese student is learning Spanish as well and needs some help with the language of Cervantes, this native speaker will be more than glad to help him/her (wait... no girls, internet, etc) out.

Cheers.

Thanks, I didn't have that extension.

谢谢，我只热情关于语言。西班牙语和加泰罗尼亚语都是我的母语。我在巴塞罗那官方语言学校学习汉语和日语。[So far] 基本日语容易。日语/西班牙语发音类似。

I'm not really studying English, although I used to. Now I just try to keep learning new words and practicing the language so it doesn't rust.

Oh, also,
是，我的汉语老师是中国人。
