  • Engaging!

    Brilliant. Engaging. Love the building block idea, I am so glad I found that course, makes learning Chinese so easy and fun. Thank you so much for putting this course together!
  • I recommend!

    The course has been organized in a manner that all that confused me about Swedish grammar has now "clicked" in my head. Super effective course. Wonderful teacher.
    Have and will keep recommending it to beginners of the language.
  • This is all you need to learn Mandarin!

    In 2 days I know more about composing sentences, both in speech and reading/typing characters. I have tried a lot of programs, apps and texts to help me with Mandarin, but all I ever learned were radicles, nouns (but not necessarily how to use them correctly in a sentence), pronouns and many verbs. So maybe I was able to fly through the first two major lessons because I am familiar with the characters or words and even some phrases, but until this app, I would struggle to get them into a correct sentence. I signed up for premium at only $7/mo, as I am rapidly synthesizing Mandarin unlike any previous time. I also signed up for a much pricier app (not endorsed by Domino) where I read pinyin, simplified Mandarin, listen to the pronunciation then recorded my pronunciation. While I’m sure AI checks my pronunciation, when it’s woefully off, a human voice corrects me. Once that subscription is over, I will move back into holding conversations with native Mandarin speakers. But I’m keeping Domino Chinese until they run out of material. With two different fluency levels, HSK courses as asides that train you to pass various levels should I need them and even a course for every day slang, Domino will keep me busy for at least a year and a half if I practice at least 2 to 3 hours a day. If I practice more I will become fluent more rapidly. The point is, I, or anyone can achieve fluent understanding, speaking and reading Mandarin from Domino. It’s amazing! If you want to learn how to write it by hand, I can’t speak to Domino yet, but there are some okay apps to practice handwriting characters, just don’t get suckered into high prices, as of now, none are worth it. Personally, I’d buy physical work books and drill just like learning handwriting in preK, kindergarten or even first grade. But that’s just me.

  • Adore this app

    After having tried many apps to learn Chinese this one was a gift from the heavens. While it definitely can be glitchy at times there was no way I could drop a star considering how far above brilliant it is in every other way. The way the course is set out appears somewhat random at the start but within the first hour of use I became a true believer in this learning method. You are also taught stroke order, pronunciation (from multiple native and non-native speakers) and pinyin as well as its definition and examples of its use within the context of recently learnt grammar and other vocab.

    Felix is a phenomenal teacher and with the short videos (1-4 minutes generally) followed by a one question quiz, plenty of summaries, reviews and examples it’s really hard to not feel engaged. I could not recommend this app any higher, love your work Felix!

  • Not working on I phone 11

    I love this app and program but can’t access it anymore for some reason. I got a new iPhone 11 and I go to the app and it doesn’t work. It opens to a white page with 4 dots and doesn’t ever leave that page. I went to app support here in the App Store but it takes you to a 404 error page, so I thought I’d write a review to see if I can get some help or they can update the app. Please help, I miss studying Chinese

  • AMAZING

    I’ve literally tried everything in regards to learning Mandarin and this is a great addition to the Domino Chinese website. It’s 100% worth the subscription if you are interested in learning Chinese.
  • Doesn’t Load

    I want to love it but it doesn’t load with or without a VPN. My iPhone 8 is up to date and the app is up to date.
  • App not working

    App does not open needs a update!
  • Excellent

    Excellent course. App needs some work. Frequently need to shut down and restart the program, especially after the last video, before the lesson mastery quiz. Also has some small errors/inconsistencies in the course content, perhaps it’s just a little rough around the edges, and needs some refinement. But I love the homegrown feel. Even with its problems, this is an excellent course. Well done Felix! Brilliant!
