Block Characters
Chinese is a ‘block’ language, consisting of ‘block’ characters.
u 

These characters never
change. No tenses or
conjugation.

u 

Easily form and build full
thoughts just by assembling
characters together without
having to worry about
changing tenses or
conjugation.

u 

This is why we start by
teaching Chinese characterby-character. We then let
you build upon these
characters to form full
phrases and sentences.

30,000+ Words and Phrases
200 Cubes in 20 themes
Organized lessons into 20 themes. Every theme
teaches and explores 10 cubes or characters.
30,000+ Words and Phrases
Enough to begin to learn basic conversational
skills and day-to-day communication needs.
Spiral Learning
In every theme, the order of these 10 cubes and
characters is carefully designed.
Each new character presented can be combined
with a previous character to be combined to form
more and more meaningful expressions. This
allows the learner to learn characters in an
evolving and spiraling sequence, and dramatically
alleviates the pressure of learning Chinese
characters.
