A good quick fix

Like any of the language courses, you get out what you put in. This course uses a music background with a native and English speaker going over Chinese phrases and words. The course tends to provide a sentence, in English, and then in Chinese and then breaks down all the words in the sentence, and the pronunciations for the words. The course is similar to the other earworms courses, and if you liked one of the others I imagine you'll like this one.



It's not a bad idea, although the tunes are not that great, I find that I can recall some of the sentences. A good supplement for learning, or for a quick fix before heading on holiday but it is not a good standalone course.

Learning Mandarin

The music in the back ground is slightly annoying at first but after a while you get hooked and it somehow helps you commit the language to memory. I have some mandarin already but haven't spoken or used the language in 15 years or so. I found it very helpful.

Works for me

If you could sum up Rapid Mandarin Chinese in three words, what would they be?

easy rapid convenient

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rapid Mandarin Chinese?

actually learning more chinese

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

no.....its ok to listen in small chunks with many bookmarks as repeated listening was essential for me

Any additional comments?

I live in china and this was useful to accelerate my chinese learning

Native speaker to music

One of the few that have a native speaker. Many others (according to fluent friends) are off in pronouncing and turns of phrase. pronouncing is perfect on this guide and some turns of phrase are off from what people would actually say but suffice for a beginner course. I listen to this on my commute as a precursor to starting an online course via yoyo Chinese
