My wife is also from Taiwan, I've found an excellent resource for learning Mandarin at:\nhttp://www.chinesepod.com/\n\nThis is a podcast for newbie, elementary, intermediate and advanced level.  Just download the mp3s and put them on your iPod, or burn them to an audio CD.

Silly answerer, you don't need to learn English to learn Chinese. They're nothing like each other. \n\nTo the asker: You can contact the Chinese consulate to find where they recommend to study Chinese in India. Since Ím not in India, I don't know any schools there.

My favorite software for beginners is HyperChina.\nhttp://www.sinologic.com/hyperchina/\nLast time I checked it could only run on a Macintosh computer. But it will run on anything from the latest Mac to a 10-year old "antique." You can get the latter for very cheap ($75 or less) at a used computer store.\n\nIf you don't like the above suggestion, try some of the offerings listed here:\nhttp://www.mandarintools.com/

Go to http://www.google.co.uk/ and type in MCSE Courses in London. There are hundreds of pages. Below are just 3 to start.\nhttp://www.affordabletraining.co.uk/ is probably the best.

Great. Find a Fil-Chinese in the Philippines. You learn English more from a Filipino than any other.

Some community collleges offer Mandarin.  I took it.  It was fun.  If the regular semester is too long, perhaps you can take an accelerated course or a summer course.  Those usually run faster/shorter...

I guess it depends on how good you are with languages :)\nYou should check out http://www.chinese-forums.com.  There are a lot of people with the same question.  Or go to http://www.chinese-forum.net , it's fairly new though.

It depends on how you plan to use the language.  If it's just for travel and getting around then simplified Chinese will be adequate.  If you intend to go into business, work for the government, or do translation work, or do advanced studies, then traditional Chinese will be more useful to you.

I don't know about skype, but I'd love to do a language exchange. You speak mandarin? I don't understand much but I am willing to learn. anifak@yahoo.com

Altavista's Babel Fish does a lot of translation.  It doesn't specifically say that it can do Mandarin though.  It can do "English-Chinese Simp" and "English-Chinese Trad", whatever that means.
