Chinese keeps their mind trained.
Chinese is not written with phonetic transcription but with characters, which each correspond to a syllable and a unit of meaning, a bit like our numbers!
This writing helps to develop your artistic side, so much so that calligraphy is China’s most renowned art form. But not only that: learning the characters, besides being fun, also helps enormously to develop our mental performance.
Learning Chinese is not as difficult as you think.
If you are rightly convinced of the advantages of investing in Chinese, also know that this language is not as difficult as you think! Chinese grammar is, in fact, much simpler than English: throw conjugations, tenses, masculine and feminine into oblivion. None of this exists in the Chinese language, and learning the basics of speaking is very easy. The characters used in the vast majority of conversations are also far fewer than you think: of the total 85,000 characters, only 3,500 are commonly used.
Dealing with dyslexia
Being dyslexic in no way prevents learning Chinese. Indeed, Chinese does not use separate letters or sounds to form a word but characters that represent the word or the complete idea. Thus, the majority of dyslexics can learn Chinese without any difficulty.

In addition to English, which is the universal language, Chinese is increasingly in demand by companies. It will allow you to have an asset on the labor market in order to communicate with China, the world’s leading economic power, or anywhere else. Speaking Chinese is also proof of open-mindedness that may impress your future boss during an interview.
