 Rating:  - Putonghua- Chinese with rythm-I have many books and CD's and also my Fiance is a native Chinese Speaker from Beijing, so when I say this CD is good then you better beleave it!! I work long hours and because my fiance speaks perfect english I'm lazy with my learning. I used this cd for one night shift and then spoke to my fiance the next day, lets just say she was really impressed... yes I knew some of the stuff already and have visited China around 6 or 7 times now but I must say I have new found confidence in speaking the language more and not have to have my fiance ask for things etc... for me :) I would recomend this to anyone wanting a good start with the language, as for another coment that says he was not understood and that it dose not teach you tones... mmmm try listening to the CD again my friend there is a native speaker on ther just listen...... BUY THE CD IT'S WORTH EVERY PENNY!! Rating:  - lack of pronounciation help a big problemI very much enjoyed the learning experience and found it stuck but then when speaking to Chinese (mandarin speakers) they couldn't understand me. The tape doesn't focus on the tones and intonations needed for Mandarin. I switched to a Harold Goodman audiobook and found I was much more understood because of the focus on the correct intonations. Maybe these tapes work well with other languages as the music in the background does seem to help the learning experience but I found them of little use for Mandarin. Rating: - Fantastic!After reading the reviews above and some consultation with other sites, I decided to buy this Rapid Chinese Volume 1 book. I always thought learning a language so different to our own would prove difficult and even frustrating. I have to say my opinion is quite the contrary: within minutes you can speak short phrases and piece together sentences that are actually useful! I simply cannot express how pleased I am with this book and audio CD...it has worked brilliantly and you can listen to it any where! But (sorry, I hate doing a big 'but') the way this advertisement puts itself across is as though you learn the chinese language through song. No. Actually, you simply have a man and a woman talking and teaching you chinese with music in the background -the speech has no particular rhythm and the music really just makes it more entertaining. I don't know how it works -neither do I want to- but something about this book and CD really works. I have been studying French for three years and German for 2 years, and I think it is fair to say that my language lessons and nothing compared to this marvellous book. You can remember everything you learn and that is saying something...I have the memory of a seive and can still learn and remember key phrases. I can't speak highly enough of it, but beware, this is more of a business book than a pleasure book (meaning you learn how to order tickets, book things, and use a taxi, not talk about yourself and what you like). Fantastic! Rating: - Learning ChineseThis is a great start to learning this language. If you enjoy listening to music whilst learning/working then you shouldn't be disappointed. Looking forward to Vol. 2! Rating: - Excellent CDMy Husband has had this great idea of learning Chinese in time for a trip to the 2008 olympics in China. He's starting early as I bought him this Cd for a gift. He loves it and it's even got our 2 and a half year old asking for a coffee in chinese! An excellent buy, I really recommend this series of CDs. We've also got the German, Italian and French ones. Can't speak highly enough of them. Can't wait for volume two to come out.
