 Good program! June 27, 2006

Well, the title of this program is "instant immersion." If you are prepared for an immersion program, the contents should not surprise you. I am currently only on the beginner disc, but am making progress. I haven't had any problem finding english translations when I need them or knowing if my answers are correct. Certainly the various exercises can be challenging at first, particularly with identifying Chinese characters. There is some trial and error involved, but with a little time and patience you will be saying "nihao ma" in no time.

This program is a mess. There are basically no instructions and there is no plan for this software. It's unclear where to start and what to expect from each menu item. I had zero knowledge of the Chinese language when I got the software, and I still have zero knowledge.
It lives up to its title of Instant Immersion. Unfortunately, you're immersed in Chinese without any context. You're expected to choose responses to a conversation for which you do not know the topic. A single picture (with no context clues) is on the screen during the "conversation." There is no indication if your "response" is appropriate. Thus you learn nothing.
I suppose if you already have some knowledge of Chinese vocabulary, it might help you to improve your skills. However, it will NOT help you gain that initial knowledge.
