About

My name is Kelly and I am an old white guy living in the United States.

I’ve been intrigued with the idea of learning Mandarin. One day–and I couldn’t tell you when exactly–I stopped considering learning Chinese and committed myself to learning Chinese.

I’m not very good at speaking Chinese but every week I get better. I’ve recently begun reading Chinese.

Chinese is hard!

Yes it is. But if I can do it, anyone can do it. You included.

Gwailo Joe is a resource for anyone learning Chinese. When I find something that works, I will share it with you here.

Welcome to Gwailo Joe!

谢谢!
