How to learn any language by sentence mining, aka gathering as many sentences, with audio, as you can find and memorizing them via spaced repetition.
Some things I discussed in the video:
Anki, a program for creating and reviewing flashcards with a built-in spaced-repetition algorithm that maximizes your review efficiency: http://ankisrs.net/
Tatoeba, an awesome sentence database with hundreds of thousands of sentences in different languages, often with audio: https://tatoeba.org/eng/
Glossika, a review system that gives you 3,000 sentences in a huge variety of languages, including oddball ones that you can only find there like Belarusian, Armenian, and Wenzhounese: https://glossika.com/
Bing Mandarin-English dictionary, a SUPERB resource for finding Mandarin examples (as well as a one-stop-shop Mandarin/Chinese dictionary) -- automatically compiles what has to be millions of examples from across the web. http://dict.bing.com.cn/?form=BDVSP4#%3Ahome
