Excelente curso. Usar sólo pinyin fue la mejor idea con cuestionarios de facilidad razonable para principiantes de nivel cero. Recomendado.

Easy to follow and useful conversational phrases for beginners. The question for the quizzes are a bit too easy and generic in my opinion.

The material lets you go practically at your own pace, and it is good to teach people how to speak before confusing them with characters.
