I've been learning Mandarin for about 3 years; I started out with Pimsleur, which I found to be a good introduction, but sparse in relation to grammatical explanation.I think a lot of people probably have a problem with where to go after Pimsleur - I tried Rosettastone, which I only found good for learning and retaining vocabulary; I also flirted with Chinesepod, but found their 'sexed-up' trendy approach off-putting. In my opinion your approach and method is the best, and I'll be staying with you for as long as you continue to put out lessons. Cheers! Graham Hi Serge,
