I like this course. My wife is Chinese and she says what I am learning is correct. I like the emphasis on spoken as opposed to written Chinese.

The teacher explains so well and the exercises are connected to the lessons in such a way that they register better in one's mind the new words.

Perhaps a very basic intro to the characters would help with pronunciation? Other than that the course is terrific! Thank you Peking University
