Pinyin Puzzle: Practice Mandarin Chinese on the go Screenshot on iOS

Whenever you travel abroad, it’s always a good idea to pick up a few words and phrases in Chinese-speaking countries. This App features three levels of practice: Choose the right tone, Choose the right spelling and Key in the right spelling. With interesting and cute animated Teacher Estella aiding you through the road, you may try out vocabulary from the basic greeting to advanced ordering dishes.

After giving it a try, come over to edX to check out our MandarinX “Basic Mandarin” class (https://www.edx.org/course/chinese-language-learn-basic-mandarin-mandarinx-mx101x ). Also, follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

This is a cool, and must-have app in your smartphone!

Good app but room for growth

This is a well designed app that goes great with MandarinX's edX courses. However, there isn't much to the app. It would be nice to see the words I got wrong at the end and the right answers. Rather than just having numbers for the tones, it would be nice to have the tone markers either above the button or as the button itself. The app only shows the character, but maybe it would be nice to show the pinyin (without tone marks) as well. Lastly, some of the vocab doesn't correspond to the correct lesson. Overall, good app, but lots of room for growth in further updates!
