Mandarin Blueprint Avaliações 

Having made it to level 13, I just want to say that there isnt a day that I start doing the course and not end up spending more than one hour doing this. Can someone really spend 15 minutes doing the Mandarin Blueprint Course? I would like to say a lot but really I would be repeating a lot of what Luke has said about trying to learn Mandarin: trying to learn but not bothering with learning the characters; trying to speak but the words never come out. I never really though that I could learn the characters and now I know enough to be able to read some of the sentences in level 13. The Hanzi method does take getting used to but thankfully I did not stop and gave it a chance. The set up does feel a little intimidating in the beginning: the main Blueprint course, the Traverse set up and use, and the Community but such was my desire to get back on the Mandarin "train" that I did not let those initial frustrating blocks deter me. The experience has been a very good one and I am hoping to be able to continue to work and improve every day.

I can't imagine myself studying mandarin without the this course to teach me characters. I've been studying for 100 days, and I can really recommend this course for learning characters.
I think it's a great investment for anyone looking to learn characters. I'm really glad I found this course, and I'm really excited for the next levels (I'm currently on level 21)

Things to bare in mind:
The flashcards can easily became overwhelming, so you will probably get to a point where you will have to prioritize a flashcard type over others.
There's a learning curve in the beginning, so I think it's best to write down all your scenes in the first levels. When you get used to it you can just stop writing it and use your brain power.
I personally believe it's great if you have a tutor just to help you with pronunciation of the characters you are learning. I would really pay attention to pronunciation, so you don't build bad habits in the beginning.

I have been living in China for 14 years. Trying to learn Chinese has been a challenge for me. I learned how to “survive” and “navigate” in China using a few basics words and phone apps. I knew about memory methods similar to Mandarin Blueprint, i saw a demonstration before , so i give it a try. It is a giant work that Phil and Luke from Mandarin Blueprint have been doing. I am learning Chinese characters for the first time in 14 years. It is the best way to learn and remember the characters and the language. Congratulations, and thank you so much! I strongly recommend.

Had my doubts at the beginning, especially about the Hanzi movie method but trusting and following the process soon proved to be extremely efficient, Not only the program itself is fantastic but it provides clues of how to learn the material and keep you motivated. Highly recommend!

From a 'cold start', i.e. zero knowledge, I've already learned 89 words and 100 characters in bait over two weeks. This is thanks to the outstanding system and the methods Mandarin Blueprint provides. It's thanks to the amazing resources MB provides, to the community - and last but not least thanks to the encouraging guidance videos Luke and Phil provide.
Above all, this whole course is so much fun - I love every minute of it.
I can only recommend it with the highest praise.

I've known that this type of memory technique is the best, for many years. I've always wanted a way to use it--learning Mandarin was the perfect opportunity! It works like a charm. But not without some real effort getting things going. It's so worth it.

I have been doing the Mandarin Blueprint for a little over 1 year but really started getting serious when I joined the recent Fluency Lab program. Everyone associated with Mandarin Blue Print from Luke and Phil to the Fluency coaches, the language tutors and support staff have been fantastic. There is also a great sense of community that provides a wonderful support system as you learn Chinese. It is not an insignificant cost, but I have rapidly progressed over the past 1.5 months from Phase 1 to Phase 3 and can read and understand simple sentences. If you are truly interested in learning Chinese, this is the program for you.

I feel very lucky to have stumbled across Mandarin Blueprint right at the beginning of my journey into this language - I've just read my first set of sentences in Mandarin without pinyin after 4 weeks of studying for an hour-or-two a day. The Mandarin Blueprint policy of letting you take the initial part of the course before subscribing is quite inspiring (far more generous that other courses I've seen that give you a free week or so) - this avoids the 'start of the year gym membership trap' of paying a lot of money and then not using it. I do speak a few European languages - but Mandarin is a whole different ballgame. The free part of the course is really letting me understand the possibilities and also the steady commitment that will be required to get to a 'reasonable' level in Mandarin. So - thank you Phil, Luke and the team for creating this course!
(I have to say that the support with this course - even the free part - is fantastic).

I am familiar with learning another language with Anki several years ago, and when i decided to learn Mandarin started by using the same method with a different app about 2 months ago. After a month, I came across the Mandarin Blueprint Pronunciation Guide on Youtube and decided to give their free course a try, and compare my progress after a month to the method I had been using up to then. 28 days and 78 cards “mastered” later, I am so glad that I came across their method, including the Hanzi Movie Method. The difference between the two for me: the first is making up a story for each character, really with no rhyme or reason, and often forcing myself to remember just by sheer force of will. The second is a very structured (soon intuitive) methodology that feels quite easy once you get used to it and build your foundation. The step by step guidance and supplemental materials have so far answered every question I’ve had. I’m looking forward to the next level!

It’s official. I am a chinese learner.
The Mandarin Blueprint course is brilliantly structured so I can learn at my own pace. I feel supported every step of the way by the MB team/admin and encouraged by the MB community. School was never this much fun !

Brilliant one of a kind tool. The creative way that they have devised to get you to retain and understand characters is highly intelligent. I am a true beginner and I tried many tools. This is the ONLY one that works. Stick with it and do ALL THE STEPS and in three months time you will grasp simple sentences already - it’s quite a thrill - 💯 recommend - I have paid for the full course and I do not regret it one bit …

MBP is a massive, well oiled, systematic way to learn Mandarin to fluency. I started from 0 many years ago when the company was in its early stages and I'm very happy to still be on board as a Fluency Lab member. The staff and teachers are responsive and engaging, they take the stress out of learning a new language. The language island feature has been a game changer and really helps connect the dots between grammar patterns and individual learned vocabulary. I highly recommend for all serious learners.

The Hanzi Movie Method definitely took me a while too set everything up because I like having things planned ahead of time. But once I got all of my actors and a few sets to start, I was genuinely shocked by how easily I was learning the characters with how to write them in the proper stroke order and imagining the props in the scenes with the actors. As I was writing the characters I was making the connections in my head because I was physically applying what I was learning, and when I saw Chinese characters out in the wild, I instinctively thought about the stroke order on how to write it. When I go to work, I often feel agitated because I can’t learn more characters while I’m working. So I have to layer on the time that I already have which isn’t much but it is worth it. I feel like I am finally moving forward with my Chinese learning.

I wish I had started with this course. Setting up for success in our busy lives has be explained thoroughly in this course. Thanks for the information. I feel so much more hopeful moving forward.

I was unsure of whether I'd be able to keep up because I've had some burnout in my recent years, but this course gives such fast and satisfying results in such an efficient way, and I feel so good about my Chinese speaking journey by the end of each day. I've been recommending this course to all of my friends, thank you so much for creating this!

I have learned Chinese on my own with different methods for more than a year before I came across MBP. And what I can say is that I have made tremendous progress in terms of characters in a few months than I have in 2 years of learning.

I really love the fact that people who teaches me Mandarin is non-native speaker. No cheat code. No privilege. Literally people who had zero at Mandarin. So they really can feel the pain of fellow non-native speakers who trying to grasp Mandarin. And the MB program really really really A TREASURE <3

I have been trying to learn Chinese for two years and couldn’t string a sentence together if my life depended on it. Then two months ago I joined mandarin blueprint, everything has changed. I’m progressing so fast it’s almost scary. I can actually talk now and it’s all thanks to them. Seriously worth every penny!

Really great content. Loved the way everything was explained. Can't wait to learn more from the various courses available. The experience and knowledge of the team is obvious and helps to make the journey possible.
