I am a complete beginner (around 35 days of duolingo practice), and I find this course a great boost to my Chinese language journey. The instructor is proficient in English and expert in Chinese with stunning visuals and clear explanations. The lessons are concise and straight to the point. The course also comes with two great books, one of which is helpful for improving writing. (I am half way through, and I must say that I am enjoying the journey)
