I did two more units from my “Read Aloud Chinese” book. The sentence are getting slightly more difficult, and there are some words and grammar which I haven’t encountered before. Which means a lot of it is above level 3 on the HSK test.

After studying the two units I went back to unit one and did shadowing all the way up to unit eight.

Total study time: 1 hour – Grammar/vocabulary: 45 minutes, shadowing: 15 minutes
