2021-09-21	Ad*****	I started learning Chinese in 2017 but gave up because I couldn't find a good, practical learning system. Recently I decided to try again and found Melnyk's Chinese, and I love it. It provides you with fun, easy, practical lessons you can listen to at home or on the go, and Serge does a great job of explaining grammar rules and other language nuances in an easy to understand manner. It's reinvigorated my desire to be fluent in Mandarin one day, and I'm having lots of fun learning. Thanks Serge!

2019-01-11	A *****	I would 100% Give it a 5 star rating if it was free. this app is 1 star in my opinion because although I am extremely passionate about leaning Mandarin Chinese,I cannot afford these lessons. I really really wish these lessons were free,as I was told Melnyks was a fantastic system for learning Mandarin Chinese.

2014-04-17	A *****	The app itself is free but membership is require for a minimum 6months - which I might consider if I'd actually had a free trial of the app??
