I was not never good with language but more of a math person.
However the setup of this course is very structured that I found love and satisfaction to learn this language. I use 2 other courses but my learning plan revolves around your structure.
I am glad you opened up the HSK3 courses (as opposed to take a test first) as I do preview some of the lessons which more clearly explains grammar I was struggling with in earlier lessons where the same grammar was only explained briefly.
I just hope that you will continue to add lessons because I noticed “I am catching up” 🙂 I can’t wait to master this 把 Sentences.
Thank you for providing such an insightful course, and I do hope that many more students will agree with me so that we may enjoy your lessons for many years to come.
感谢您
约翰
