This is just simply the best Chinese Course around. 谢谢你！

[StephenKane]

Amazing that you were able to produce such quality HSK 3.0 content so quickly. The sample sentences are brilliant and the presentation is perfect. Thanks everyone…especially Joe and Eileen ❤️

[murphy]

Eileen, I own an English training school in Henan. We train only elite English students who will study in the USA at top universities such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, University of Chicago, etc., after they finish high school. I've never made it my priority to learn Chinese as I'm usually in an English-speaking environment. I can order in a restaurant or buy things in the market, but not really have a substantial conversation.

I said all of that to say this about your videos. The way that you teach with literal translations is something no other Chinese language program does that I've seen. I have seen a lot. As you know, your method allows the student (me) to learn word order/sentence structure naturally. I know that you know this, but I want to say that it is so important to do it the way that you do. Your students learn grammar (and vocabulary) naturally in the context of a sentence.

I am a paid member (I think I've paid a couple of times just because I want to support your excellent efforts and show my appreciation). I also want to encourage you to keep on doing what you do because you do such an excellent job!

加油！

[benjaminsamueldaumont]

Thank you very much for doing such a great job ! Thank you very much! (From France 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷)

[hultonclint]

谢谢老师！I'm a little scared of these changes because I was studying for old HSK level 3 and now it means my level is very low in new HSK, haha.

[stevenoviedo]

As an intermediate student I hope The New HSK 1 vocabulary numbers and requirements help them to actually asses the language and the time and dedication it takes.
It seems as a better introduction to the language than the old HSK 1.

[cameronthorby]

Wish more things did literal translations of the mandarin to english, makes it easier to learn the grammar.

[rolfexner]

This is amazing! Thank you so much for this video series. I love the challenge of repeating the example sentence from only the English translation, it's a great way of embedding what's being learnt. This series is amazing value for just $10 and has lifted Mandarin Corner to #1 in my list of Mandarin Youtube channels. Well done!

[NZee-nynt]

I really like this format...comprehensible input...learn so much even if it is just a few words...👍👍

[billbloggs]

Another fantastic lesson! Many thanks!!!

[JohnMorrisonmindsmart]

This is a great way to learn Chinese. The sentences are useful and having a chance to think in Chinese is extremely helpful. Eileen's pretty face and beautiful gestures make this video series a winner.

[antonyMV]

Very good video for people who want to get useful vocabulary❤

[rozumekmaly]

Thank you! Way better than old version. As the old version is still valid and you pass all exams in 2021 according to the old rules, it would be great to upgrade old HSK vocabulary, it would be very useful.

[jumpinjaggi]

nothing compares to this channel, its so good

[ticketforlife]

you are the best teacher, most efficient, please follow with part 2, can't wait !!! finished this and learned all the words in 3 hours of studying part 2

[carineacciaro]

Merci pour ce beau travail. ! J’aime énormément le format j utilise pause pour écrire sans modèle ce que j’ai entendu et cela n’aide beaucoup dans mon apprentissage... Je suis obligée de faire une double traduction car je suis française et cela m’oblige aussi à pratiquer l’anglais😜 Il n’y a que très peu de contenu de qualité en ligne pour apprendre le chinois quand on est français🤷‍♀️Seriez vous d’accord pour que je fasse une traduction en français de vos leçons?

[hyperbene]

This was the most useful Chinese language-learning video I have ever seen! Xiexie!

[mai]

THANK U SO MUCH omg just what I needed!
