I was stuck at a plateau with mandarin. Knew pinyin, could nail tones — but natives kept switching to english. Turns out my mouth was defaulting to english shapes. So I built a diagnostic system to identify which habits were breaking my pronunciation and retrain them with physical mouth placement. Includes a 90-day plan. For learners who know the theory but can't sound natural yet.
I made this because I was stuck at a weird plateau with mandarin. Knew pinyin, could do tones when I focused, vocab was solid. But the moment I stopped actively thinking about pronunciation, natives would just switch to english. Super frustrating.
Turns out the issue wasn't my ears or my knowledge. It was literally my mouth. English and mandarin position your mouth completely differently, and I was defaulting to english shapes without realizing it. So I built a system to figure out exactly which habits were messing me up, then retrained them with physical mouth positioning instead of just repeating audio.
The guide walks you through your own interference profile, gives placement instructions for tricky sounds, and includes a 90-day plan so you're not just practicing randomly. It's for people who already know the theory but can't make it sound natural yet.
Would love feedback if you check it out!
