I have been studying the platform Felix has created for over a year now and his method is unique and definitely worth a try. If you ever had any inclination to learn Chinese give domino a try you won’t be disappointed. Also the videos are priceless and make learning fun. ### 1/5 — Omg *2021-11-07, version 5.2.2* Wish it wasn’t having to be paid for ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2021-02-28, version 5.1.12* The good: Felix does a good job not scaring off beginners. I think this is a good course for beginners and people without lots of language study background, but someone with significant language study background may be better served by some mixture of textbooks and online dialogue videos/a one-on-one tutor. In fact, I would say the more you have studied languages, the more you will find Domino Chinese some mix of longwinded and annoying. The bad: There is lots of room for improvement: 1. Occasionally get errors about "can't find my learning progress." These seem to be less common now. 2. The flashcards are annoying in that they often cover words not in the videos or are out-of-sync with the videos due to the course evolving. Additionally, equal weight is placed on obscure words as opposed to very common words. Fluency is more based on you knowing the top 500 or 1000 words completely as opposed to whichever words Felix chose to teach together in a lesson because the characters looked similar. 3. I think the coverage of grammar is good for beginners but longwinded and perhaps even confusing if you have a better background in language study. 4. Unfortunately vocabulary learning is done by related characters, so it takes a long time before you learn even basic words that you may need. 5. The course is advertised as "45 minutes a day", but some of the lessons take well over an hour when you add up the videos and quizzes. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* Best Chinese learning app out there! I’ve been using it for several months and not getting bored. ### 5/5 — The best app *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* Better than any other language app I tried before ### 5/5 — The best app *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* Better than any other language app I tried before ### 5/5 — Really excellent free app. *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* I finished everything on the free app and I am now using premium + The Domino Edu Team are constantly adding to the app and making improvements. I’ve used several Chinese language apps. This is the best one. ### 5/5 — My favourite Chinese learning App *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* I decided to learn Chinese during quarantine. After trying a few different apps, I found this one to be the most effective for me and best of all there are a lot of good exercises and information given to you for free. Sometimes, if I am not in the mood for any lessons, I find the daily challenge games are enough to keep me coming back. The app’s UI is easy to navigate and overall very stylish. When I eventually find employment again I will definitely pay for the premium subscription as there are some extra features which would make my life easier, but rest assured the free version will not limit your learning at all! ### 5/5 — I am very happy about good things means not annoying *2020-10-26, version 5.1.6* I am very good job ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2020-10-25, version 5.1.5* Excellent way to learn and memorize chinese characters.
