CHINESE (MANDARIN) DEMO

For example:

The Chinese (Mandarin) for BOSS is LAU BAN
You must imagine you hear a LOUD BANG and your BOSS vanishes

Start the demo

Linkword Chinese Mandarin Level 1 is available in a choice of SOFTWARE (PC and Mac), AUDIO CD, or MP3 AUDIO formats.

The SOFTWARE version allows you to hear the correct pronunciation of each word when it is first presented (as in the demo above), as well as seeing the text presented on screen. The AUDIO and MP3 AUDIO versions allow you to listen to the entire course in the car, on a personal CD player, or on an MP3 player like the Apple iPod etc. Please see futher below for a demo of the audio course.

The software, audio, or MP3 audio versions are equally effective courses on their own as they teach the same vocabulary and grammar. However, for those who wish to have the convenience of seeing the text and hearing pronunciation of each word from the software course, and also listening to the entire course while away from your computer with an audio course, the different versions are highly complementary. Many people learn first by using the software, then revise by listening to an audio version.

The software and MP3 audio versions are available on CD by post, or can be downloaded immediately after payment. This allows you to start learning within minutes wherever you are in the World, and at additional discount (please see the 'Special Offers' on the right of the page). Audio CD courses are available on CD by post only.

Printable course vocabulary glossaries are provided with all courses.

Please see our special offers on the right of the page for details of great savings.

The file will start playing shortly after you click the link, but will take a few minutes to open completely if you have a 56k modem connection.

The Level 1 audio course plays approximately 6 hours of recording.

"It took 12 hours to teach a regime that normally takes 40 hours."
Personnel Manager, Thomson Holidays (in interview with the Financial Times)

"The most entertaining language tutor of all. It works and it's fun"
The Guardian

"Linkword definitely boosted pupil self-esteem"
Times Education Supplement January 2003
Read the TES review

"The success rate was conspicuous. The pupils developed a very high level of motivation for language learning as they could see very rapid progress and they remembered rather difficult vocabulary for a long period of time using the imagery."
Steffen Sommer, Head of Modern Languages, Rugby School

"What do we recommend for (language course) starters? We have a very confident answer to the question. We recommend Linkword. The courses are highly appreciated by the learners - quite simply, it gives results. We call results an ability to read, speak, and understand the language in simple terms after 15 - 20 hours."
Michael Woodhall, Director of the Language Centre Bournemouth University Business School.

"I am dyslexic. A few years ago, I found 'LinkWord', I started to learn Spanish and it is absolutely fabulous. My husband does it with me and we both love it. It has to be one of the easiest ways of learning a language in the world. I run the British Dyslexia Centre and have told many parents about this way of teaching languages."
Maria Chivers

"Now you really can learn a language"
Daily Mail

"I tried the course out in both German and French and was amazed at how quickly it worked"
Jan McCann Toronto Sun

"A simple new way to increase your foreign-language vocabulary... Samakah means fish. You can remember that by imagining trying to smack a fish. Smack. Samakah. Smack. Samakah. Yes, you're learning Arabic one word at a time."
Nada El Sawy, Newsweek

"Unforgettable Memory Joggers"
Sunday Times

"In the end of term result, the average mark with a conventional approach was 23.75%. This rose to 69% using the Linkword course."
Vernon Thomas. Head of Languages, Bishop Vaughan School Swansea

"As a dyslexic person I was astonished at how quick, easy, effective and enjoyable the Linkword system is. The website says that, with Linkword, people can learn up to 3 times more quickly than with conventional methods. I would say that with my dyslexic condition I have actually learned even more quickly than that".
Andrew Glynn, Brixton
