So, I have a question about names. When I look at translation of my name to Chinese it looks sort of like this 黑暗山强度 .

We have a video lesson on How to Get A Chinese Name, check it out if you’re interested!
Excellent course, I found it very useful! The only area of opportunity that I found was that the final exam was way too easy and too short, it should be longer and harder so we can really test everything that you taught us. Other than that, I loved it.

Hi Lili,
I took this course last year (probably some lessons this year too). I did all the tests but I don’t have a ‘certificate’ for any test? I do have a green checkmark next to all the tests. Is there a separate test I have to pass?

Valentin

At the moment we don’t currently have “Certificates” set up for the courses. But it’s definitely something we plan to implement in the future. But congratulations on completing all the quizzes. Keep up the good work!
I like that your Beginner Chinese Course is simple and to the point whereas others are too complicated for beginners.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed our Beginner Chinese Course.
