今天就到这里吧
Jīntiān jiù dào zhèlǐ ba
or you may hear it like this
今天就到这儿吧
Jīntiān jiù dào zhè'er ba

Let's call it a day / That's all for today.

Can be used in any situation, doesn't have to be end of lesson, can be end of work, end of a sport session or end of a gaming session. Let's call it a day / That's all for today.

Yes, and also we can say like this, "今天的课结束了" (jīn tiān de kè jié shù le).

Here's a breakdown of the sentence:

今天 (jīn tiān) means "today"
的 (de) is a possessive particle that connects "today" with "lesson" to indicate that it's "today's lesson"
课 (kè) means "lesson"
结束了 (jié shù le) means "is finished" or "has ended"

So, altogether, the sentence means "Today's lesson is finished."

I uploaded "Say It Right In Chinese", enjoy it. https://www.cchatty.com/pdf/3191How to say when the food has gotten bad -1 -当一些食物坏了,用中文普通话怎么说? - YoutubeI just discovered the Chinese Track podcasts and went through the first 4 lessons and I really like the way that it's done so far: https://www.chinesetrack.com/podcast-feeds/ It's easy to listen to, it's free, and it's really cool the way that each lesson builds on the one before, introducing you to new vocabulary, but also using that vocabulary in future lessons so that you remember it. I haven't gone very far through it, but so far it's the best introduction I've found.A day of SummerI uploaded "First Steps in Chinese Short Course in Everyday Chinese", enjoy it. https://www.cchatty.com/pdf/3901Halo, saya dari Indonesia.

There are a lot words and expressions, which have been used without any second-thoughts, astonish me from time to time. For example, "有点儿“and "一点儿”, it has never occurred to me that "有点儿“ expresses a tone of unsatisfactory. "怎么走“和“怎么去”, one is to ask about the route and one is to ask the manner of transportation. At the same time, it is also fun to see that students from all over the world are fascinated in the long Chinese history and the unique pictograph Chinese Characters. Someone says Chinese is difficult, however there are still many "foreigners" who can speak very proficient Chinese. It is up to the persistence and perseverance.
