Very good course to start with something new. I recommend it.

Maybe, it is because I am new in this matter, but I thought that you would teach us how to write it.

O curso é relativamente fácil para aprender algumas bases na língua chinesa. A prática e o treino e o estudo continuado irão definir o nível a que se irá chegar.

Very informative course. Lots of basic Chinese knowledge is provided through these 7 weeks. I just wish that there was a variety of memory games. Great lessons.

I think your syllabus should be added more Chinese characters so that the learners can get in touch with Chinese.
