We in Spain use "where are u from?" as "¿De qué país eres?" cause we refer to the country u are from.
¿De dónde eres? is a bit different cause it can also be used for cities, place or even, for example, at schools, refering to which school you came from.
In spanish "te" is use in sentences to refer to "you" as the object of the sentence, for example:
ComeTE toda la comida del plato. It is that u have to eat it, TE refers to who has to eat them, so, as in this case, you.
Remember than "Mi" (posesive, my or mine) is not the same as "Mí" (myself).
Hope this will help, greetings from Spain!

"Where are you from?" in Spanish is "¿De dónde eres?"
"I am from China" in Spanish is "Yo soy de China" or "Soy de China" In Spanish you can omit the subject.
"Te" means "you" when "you" is not the subject. For example, "I love you" is "Te quiero". Don't mistake with "Té", which means "Tea".
"Mi" means "my", yes, but don't mistake with "Mí", which means "me".
I hope I have helped you ;)

Hola Echo.
Where are you from? = De donde eres tu?
I am from China= Yo soy de China.
En español existen: El complemento directo, complemento indirecto y los pronombres reflexivos, que pueden parecer iguales, pero dependen de la forma de usarlos.
Complemento Directo = Direct Object.
me = me
te = you
lo, la = him,her
nos = us
os = you
los, las = them.
Complemento Indirecto = Indirect Object
me = to me
te = to you
le = to him, to her
nos = to us
os = to you
les = to them.
Pronombres Reflexivos = Reflexive Object
me = myself
te = yourself
se = himself, herself
nos = ourselves
os = yourselves
se = themselves. Ex: I wash (myself) = Yo me lavo. He washes ( himself ) = El se lava.

Where are you from? = De dónde eres?. También ,de dónde procedes? Cuál es su procedencia?
I am from China = Yo soy de China
" Te " se utiliza en español, para dirigirse a una persona con la cual hay una determinada confianza o se tiene una posición superior a ella
Ex: Te amo (I love you) ; Te recordaré ( I remember you) ;Te ayudaré ( I help you?
Espero que te sirva para aclarar tus dudas, Saludos
