I think audio recording should be updated. Its quality is no longer good. And also the pictures in the quiz should be displayed much bigger on the screen.

I like this course as the lecturer provides daily conversations. By the way, it's still difficult for me to pronounce correctly regarding only the pinyin.

Creo que es un curso muy conveniente, es corto pero en cada lección se aprende algo útil, y la pronunciación de la profesora y su voz son muy agradables.
