You can try BBC languages, it offers extensive resources on multiple languages.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/
What's impressive about this site is that it's not just basic grammar and vocab. There are slang guides, info on using the languages in the workplace, and monthly audio magazines with articles on the various countries' culture and news. They've even got a "Your Say" section, where other students share their common mistakes, learning tips, and blogs from abroad, and tips on improving at languages in general.
I advice that you take a entry level class with a teacher at a trusty school. After a few month, you get the hang of the style of the language, you may move on and study by yourself. It's also a lot better when you can coverse with others.
Confucius Institute is the authority in Chinese language like the British Council for English.

This is a programme on CCTV. Hope this can help. But the best way is still to find a native speaker. Make a friend, that'll be a great help for both. Cause you want to learn a foreign lanuage, you need to learn its culture.

There is an extremely good podcast from ChinesePod.com. There are three different levels, beginner, intermediate, and advanced, so you can download and listen at your leisure.
To get it you can use iTunes (free from Apple.com) or any sort of "podcatching" software (most of the time free and virus-free), which can be obtained here: http://www.podcast411.com/sware_listners.html
Good luck with Chinese!

If you want to understand Mandarin but you have no clue exactly where to commence then a program for Mandarin is the greatest on the web program for the newbies simply because it really begins with the basis.
