I have tried several programs from Rosetta Stone (hated it) to audio tutorials and books. This software I discovered first by downloading the Byki software for free, i got hooked and purchased the Byki deluxe. The problem with the Byki is they don't guide you through a systematic learning program, but what you do learn you learn well.
So I ordered this program, in two days I was recognizing Chinese characters and writing in Chinese. WHAT OTHER PROGRAM CAN DO THAT? None that I know of!
This program will take you through the basics, real time conversations, games and intuitive role playing that will teach you in a way that it sticks. I love the fact I can read and write in Chinese. The Byki system is the best and you will get hooked after only one lesson.
This program will teach you about China as well as the people that live there. This really is very impressive and for this amount of money they also give you the MP3 audio files to travel with in your portable player. If that isn't enough, online they have lessons created by other users that you can download for free.
Along with a 6 month money back guarantee, YOU CANNOT LOSE
I hope this persuades you to buy this program, I have been frustrated by many and this one has exceeded my expectations and it will yours too.
