All Those Apps Won't Get You There.Ā
The Bamboo Mandarin MethodĀ is the missing piece most learners never findāso you can focus, stay consistent, and make real progress from day one.
Youāre here because you'd like to learn Mandarin, right?
š¤ Maybe you want toĀ connect with your Chinese heritageĀ or loved ones
š Maybe you know that Mandarin is theĀ most widely spoken native language in the world with overĀ 1Ā billionĀ speakers, opening upĀ thousandsĀ of opportunitiesĀ for connection, adventure, and career
šš»āāļø Or maybe you just want to knowĀ some simple phrases toĀ impress your partnerās parents!
WhateverĀ your motivation, I know youāre keen to get stuck in. But you mightāve heard Mandarin isĀ near impossible to learn, or just feel completelyĀ lostĀ as to where to even begin.
And I get it, becauseĀ thatās exactly where I was 5Ā years ago.
ä½ å„½ nĒhĒo! I'm IzzyĀ šš»āāļøĀ
Iām a doctor, YouTuber, and Iām half-Chinese.
But back in 2020, I couldnāt even introduce myself in Mandarin.
I tried everything: apps, tutors, courses.
But I stayed stuck, frustrated, and constantly starting overĀ š
Then something clicked.
I realised all the apps, hacks, and tips in the world would never work unless they were attached to a systemĀ āļø
Systems arenāt just boring structures that take the joy out of learning.
In fact, I discovered quite the opposite.
When I stopped relying on scattered content and started building a system that I could follow consistently, the whole process became enjoyable, sustainable, and evenā¦ easy š
It took me from an absolute beginner to an intermediate learner ā with a 99% score in the HSK 4 exam ā while studying medicine full-time at CambridgeĀ š©š»āāļø
Enter: The Bamboo Mandarin Method.
Once I realised that systems were the key to language learning, I spent 1000+ hours of trial, error, and deep research to build the system I wish I had when I first startedĀ āļø
The Bamboo Mandarin Method is a self-study framework designed to save you from confusion, second-guessing, and wasted time ā±ļø

ā This course is perfect for you if...
- Youāre motivated to learn Mandarin, but not sure where to start. You want guidance on which tools to use, how to use them, and how to create a learning system that actually fits into your life.
- You want to save time and learn more efficiently. Youāre busy, and you care about doing things right the first time. This method cuts the fluff and gives you the most effective, evidence-based techniques to help you make the most of every minute you study.
- Youāre ready to take charge of your learning. Whether youāre starting from scratch or picking things up after a long break, youāre ready to set your own goals, build momentum, and finally speak Mandarin with confidence.
ā This course isn't for you if...
- Youāre hoping for a magic bullet. Learning Mandarin takes time, effort, and consistency. Until we can plug a chip into your brain and download the language, thereās no shortcut that works without you doing the work.
- Youāre not ready to commit for the long haul. Building fluency means building a new set of neural networks, and that takes showing up consistently, not just one-week streaks.
- You want a traditional Mandarin course. The Bamboo Mandarin Method wonāt teach you vocabulary or grammar directly. Instead, it teaches youĀ howĀ to teach yourself ā and become a confident, independent learner in the process.
Don't just take my word for it.Ā
Over 100 students have gone through the course already, and hereās a few thoughts from some of them:
MariaĀ š©āš»
"This is getting even better every module! I really appreciate you taking the time to help us establish a good foundation on which to base our learning. Tons of courses just send you out without any groundwork. Knowing my motivation, vision, and having a plan have made learning Mandarin so enjoyable (so far!)"
FrofetsĀ š
āIzzyās YouTube channel felt like a good bridge between a familiar western internet platform and theĀ ChineseĀ side of things.Ā This, along with the overall emphasis on structure in all the things she does made me confident that this course would deliver meaningful insight into what tools and platforms to use when delving deeper into learningĀ Chinese.ā
CatĀ šāāļø
"Really love your technique of writing the content below while providing a video walking through material. It's very helpful since I like to pretend I can multitask. After the painful realization I have failed, I can read over what you have provided rather than trying to find the timestamp of my last distraction. Thank you!"Ā
JeanĀ š§āš
"Izzy, I am really enjoying how you are using Chinese as a way to explain how to learn, It's like a modern and much more specific version of what Tim Ferris has promised."Ā
MichaelĀ šāāļø
"I watched your Bamboo videos, read your materials, and it made sense to me. If I was ever going to accomplish my goal, it would be by strict adherence to your program."
