Studying Chinese

I recently took an intensive Chinese language course at Mandarin Zone. I enjoyed it a lot and plan to continue studying there in the future. It gave me confidence in studying Chinese and I found the teacher very helpful and informative. Although it was a beginner course I found I had little trouble in keeping up. Of course, my level may have been a bit high for that level but I think it is a good idea to learn some basic vocabulary before studying a language. I look forward to studying there again.
