Posted on: Asking Prices in Chinese with 多少
March 24, 2018, 07:15 AMHey guys, love the new ATWTI lessons and I think this really is the part that was missing in ChinesePod so far. Here are some suggestions to make it even better: 1. Change the business model and make all normal online lessons free (including all the old ones that are produced already and access to dialogue, vocab etc). Additional stuff like special video courses or physical books could be sold to make money (This is the business model of TalkToMeInKorean.com and I think they are very successful with it. This model actually makes me feel good about spending money there and I am happy to support them this way, whereas for ChinesePod paying the subscription has more of a bad feeling to it so I am reluctant to pay for it) 2. Make it easier to access lessons. I don't know why but since this page was redesigned I find it super hard to find olderlessons. On a page it shows only 8 lessons or so and when I load more then again only 8 or so lessons are added. If I want to go lesson 100 then I have to click a million times to get there. There is a lot more I could say but I think that should do for now. ChinesePod is a great resource and has awesome content. If only it would use a "free to play" model instead of a "in your face paywall" I would be even be willing to spend more money here :>

January 15, 2017, 05:09 PMIn the Expansions of this exercise:
哦，我知道他，可是我不认识他。
has a very wired translation:
Oh, I know of him, but I don't know him.
What's that supposed to mean?

November 25, 2016, 07:09 AMSometimes I just wonder where vocab for Exercieses is coming from... why does it ask bout "看病"? This is neither in the dialogue nor in the expansion exercises. And vocab like this appears almost in every lesson... I really can't understand what the point is. It's rather frustrating if you learn everything but still can't do the exercise xS.

November 24, 2016, 01:26 PMThe lesson is nice but NO WAY this is newbie!
I am upper elementary student here and I struggle with this vocab.
Should be reclassified :)
