'Chinese in steps'


Recommended Posts

Has anyone else used to series 'Chinese in steps'? It is a 4 volume textbook series and I find that it has been very useful in helping me learn Chinese, especially written. It has 20 words per lesson, equating to 200 per book and 800 over the series. I found that this was a very good course for beginners.

Hi Hedonologist

I have never heard of this series. I personally used books like: Boya Chinese, Remembering the Hanzi (From J.W. Heisig), Zhongguohua and now I am using a book from Wolfgang Behr and R. Gassmann called, "Antikchinesisch" which is about literary (Classical Chinese). I have plenty of other books at home.

I'd also like to learn more about this series.  I think I'll have a go into looking it up.

I absolutely despise Remembering the Hanzi.  Heisig just adapted it from the kanji edition for Japanese, and it just loses so much of the usefulness from that.
