Do you know of any online resources that would assist in self-learning mandarin?
Duolingo isn’t great for learning languages in a useful way but Mango is a great language learning app.
In the US you can get a free family membership (up to 5 people) through most local libraries. That is 5 people per library card.
a lot of people on xhs recommended HelloChinese, its in the play store, dunno about the app store. i really like it when i remember to use it lol. also, just hanging out on xhs helps, you can practice reading and listening and a lot of creators make content about learning chinese
So far, I really like this website, Immersive Chinese: https://console.immersivechinese.com/
HelloChinese is a pretty good app to start.
I wouldn’t use Duolingo. Not an effective tool for learning in general and utter trash for Asian languages.
