GBI really enjoy Pandanese I really enjoy Pandanese. You can learn at your own pace, it works well and it's simple to use. It has room for growth, it would be good to have a mobile app and a better UI to track progress of old lessons but it's more than functional and nice to use. I feel like I am progressing very fast and it's thanks to their system.

GBPretty good with lots of potential I have been using Pandanese for 9 days now and so far I really enjoy the program. It’s the closest thing to a Chinese version of WaniKani although it is definitely at an earlier stage of development. I like the use of colors to designate the vocab, radicals, and characters as well as the spacing and ease to just use numbers for the tones instead of trying to fumble with accent marks. Some suggestions that I would think would make it better are: -Possibly color coding (preferably) OR creating mnemonics for the tones since they are a super important part of the language and does need to be memorized. -The quality of the pronunciation voice does the job but can definitely be improved. -Some of the mnemonics don’t make the most sense and some of them don’t even have the word included in some way. Maybe create a 5-10 word title mnemonic that’s easy to stick and then have a few sentences to aid/supplement that main sentence. -Having a separate traditional Characters version would be cool but I would focus on getting the simplified version down before beginning that. Overall I liked it so far and do plan on continuing to use and upgrade, hopefully see it improve and grow as I work though it.

AUEngaging and effective learning method Pandanese's teaching methodology is truly engaging and has enabled me to consistently learn and review Chinese characters. The sequence of radicals and characters is designed so that you gradually learn harder and harder concepts, by building upon and reinforcing simpler ones. The learning experience isn't faultless though.Tthe spaced repetition system is good in principle, but it becomes a bit unfeasible as levels increase. It is common to find cards with faults, which hampers my learning. Nevertheless, I greatly enjoy learning Chinese with Pandanese and hope that the developers can keep on improving it.
