I had a great experience with eChineseLearning. It is definitely a program I would recommend. I have been studying Chinese for 5 years, that's 5 years I have tried different programs and had different teachers, so I have come into contact with a lot of different methods of teaching. As soon as the free trial started, I could tell it was an efficient and effective way. We jumped right into the lesson with no awkwardness and the teacher, Helena, was very engaging and funny.
We spoke in Chinese the entire lesson, and aside from immediately being able to gauge my level and teach me something new, she also took a couple of minutes to correct some of my tones and word usage. This is a problem you come into after learning Chinese for a long time, you get into a habit of using something wrong and usually teachers don't focus so much on correcting you. Yet, Helena was able to quickly correct my mistakes without making me feel dissuaded, and she did it in a way that helped me remember for the future.
I was really impressed by how much we got done in just 30 minutes. Sometimes a class can feel like a waste of time when a teacher reteaches you something you have already learned, or spends too much time over-explaining. Yet I didn't feel like a second of the class was wasted, and even though the time seemed to fly by, I still learned new vocabulary, grammar and worked on tones.
In summary, I would recommend E-Chinese Learning to a friend.
