Learning Mandarin

This was a free first lesson to the coarse. I have no ability with languages but I managed to understand and repeat what was being said by the end of the lesson.
The downside is the long explanation in English at the start, but I'm sure the following lessons won't have that.
I'll buy some more lessons.
