Críticas "A fantastic place to start… offers a less intimidating barrier to Chinese than other textbooks."--Greg Bell, En Route To Fluency blog"I really liked how the book is packed with cultural details.

Indeed, I was impressed to see Chinese poems from the Tang dynasty appearing at the end of most chapters!" --Perapera Language Tools blog"…well-written and helps you speak Chinese in no time." --FluentU.com"This is a good book for non-native speaking parents. Each chapter included vocabulary, dialogues and culture information. This is a book written by an experienced Chinese instructor." --Miss Panda Chinese"I loved my Chinese classes with Yi Ren. She didn't just teach the language--but also Chinese culture and history. Her new book reflects her warmth and breadth of teaching." --Mike Farer, former student, and City Planner"Thanks to Yi Ren, I actually learned about the Mandarin language, to speak phrases, to understand snippets of Mandarin conversations when I hear others speak, and to have the confidence to tackle this very complex language." --Beth A. Buonanno, Mandarin learner"As a teacher myself, I have always been impressed with Yi's knowledge of language acquisition. As her pupil, I found her passion and determination inspiring. Learning with Yi gave me the feeling of being in China all over again." --Karen Enos, Mandarin learner"One other thing I really enjoyed about this book is the inclusion of traditional Chinese poetry.
