Hi! We're the Refold Mandarin learning community. We're excited to meet you! We're a group of dedicated language learners who focus on learning languages the fun (and effective) way -- by engaging in content IN our target language. That means watching movies, TV, C Dramas, YouTube, or reading books, stories, web novels, manhua, and doing things that native speakers would do. Humans don't learn languages by memorizing grammar patterns or doing boring drills. We learn through exposure and being interested in things that are in the language. That's how you learned your native language and you can follow a similar path with Mandarin, too. If you took Chinese in school and didn't like it, try learning this way and in just a few short years, you'll be able to easily and fluidly have a conversation with millions of new people.
