Me encantó el curso. La profesora excelente, los materiales buenos, aunque por alguna razón los audios no jalaban desde mi PC pero si desde la APP del celular. Ahora voy por los demás cursos de chino.

The material was fun and easy to understand. And I also felt that the level of Chinese was enough to start to speak with natives. The teach was pleasant and engaging. It was a very nice experience.

Fue un curso muy completo en el que pude aprender no solo de la correcta pronunciación de las palabras, sino también de su escritura y la importancia de las acentuaciones en cada una de las palabras.

The best free course I've ever had. So easy to memorize and because it's taught by native, I easily can differentiate the tones. I'm going to the next lesson because this is super helpful for me.
