Summary

I am a life mentor and instruction designer. I believe education should be kind to students. They shouldn't be frustrated while learning. Whether learning can be fun or frustrating depends on how it is designed.

Then I got interested in education because I felt it was the most productive among any other fields. Then I decided to be an educator for my whole life.

Before, I rated this Good/Amazing. Now, I'm rating it a 5. I realized how much I learned and how much this course taught me. I'm not finished, but with the help of this course, I feel like I already completed the entire course and all the lectures. However, despite all of the positive attributes of this course, I'd recommend adding in the four tones to enhance the course's leverage. I may be incorrect though, please tell me if I'm supposed to just not care about the pinyin.

Enjoying learning from the start

By Christina Rogers on 9/9/2020

I am continuing through this course but so far I have loved every minute of it. I haven't gotten very far but already I feel like I have learned so much more of another language, Chinese no less, than I have ever grasped of another language before!

Yes it is good

Course content are awesome

By Eustacia Studer on 5/23/2020

I have only gotten in three lessons so it has been mainly introductory. I cannot give an accurate review of the entirety of this course at this point and their is not enough information to feel one way or the other about what I have seen so far. I do like how the course is being described thus far and am excited to see the application of the discussed teaching methods throughout the course.

By Robert L.van Es on 3/18/2020

I do understand clearly what has been said. And it is to me a big challenge to continue. I have been very much motivated.

By Alexey Saganov on 3/3/2020

The course is great, but I wish it had transliteration to the characters.
