I had loved this course, because they teach you a lot of in Chinese and we can improve your language cultural.

Good range of topics, but very little practice materials given, and the instructer is unnaturally formal.

Good as a refresher for people with some Chinese already but not thorough enough for a complete beginner

I´ve missed Chinese hanzi.

But apart from that the course and tests are all good.

I think, for beginners, it's a good job but the quiz is really hard to use !!

it is very good but i dont understand why they dont teach the writing hanzi

It has to be more intensive about pronunciation.

Course is enjoyable and interesting so far.

good teacher but i not a great course

Pretty good course for beginners.

I would love to learn more :) .

Ok as intro to chinese language

its terrible but okay

Sub in spanish plz

Très instructif

Good course :)!

The course is helpful for learning specific expressions but does not provide a lot of building blocks. Phrases are provided as a block and often have to be deconstructed to understand which word means what, so that that word can be used in another context. For example: we are told that "kan shu" means "reading", but since "kan" means "to watch", does that mean that "shu" means book? There are also a lot of common endings to words; being told what those endings mean (e.g. "day") would help recognize unknown words in different context (e.g. hearing a word that ends in "-tian" indicates that we're talking about days, which would help understanding the general meaning of a sentence).

The quizzes are not challenging and do not help with the learning.

The most useful part of the course is the vocabulary list at the end of unit 7, but I could not find a way to download it. Too bad!

I thought she was a nice Teacher but Didn't teach the Basics steps into speaking & learning chinese .

If she had started with ABC alphabet how to write & speak the first week then taught to sound each letter out in different pitches of volume 2week then to sentences building 3rd week so on .

it would had been much more helpful I believe ...

I sad that i had to leave the course b/c it seem and look like a great obertonty ... but it went to fast didn't cover what i Expected it would.. :(

The whole course is basically a short topic based phrasebook being read-out and over-explained in English. Since I already speak English, this isn't very useful. The course contains no dialogues, or any real situations where vocab's being reviewed. I found the exercise nitpicky and confusing, and there's no indication nor review of what actually you did wrong. Better just use an audio-phrasebook and repeat it using the same time.

I am giving it a 2 and am leaving the course because several of the recordings in the second quiz don't work. It is not possible to participate when there are technical difficulties like this. If the recordings worked, I am sure it would be a very fun and interesting class.

This teacher reminds me of old aunties that tried to tell me how to think. "That's just the way it is" is never a good reason for me.

I think with more listen exercises this course will be better and the length of the videos too short.
