Play 10 minutes a day for spoken Chinese you’ll never forget. Fun activities use gamification to test your progress. Rhythmic chants make words and sentences stick in your memory. Use the power of rhythm to learn Mandarin Chinese without even trying.

LoopSkool Chinese 2 (Chinese title: 循环口语集训营)is the second level in the LoopSkool Chinese series. The content of this app has been created according to Stage 2 of the International Curriculum for Chinese Language Education.

FUN AND GAME-LIKE!

LoopSkool guides you through 3 modes:

1. PLAY chants: Listen to a chant on loop. The memory power of rhythm means you won’t just remember it: you’ll never forget! You can even loop an individual phrase to really make it stick!

2. DO activities: Fun interactive exercises test your memorization of words and sentences. You’ll be getting the four tones of Mandarin right, the KEY to pronunciation that opens the door to understanding.

3. TEST yourself: Timed tests record your score and speed. Work your way up through levels Red, Orange and Green. You know you’re ready to progress to the next lesson when you’re in the Green zone.

WHY CHANTS?

Recent research (and people’s experience over thousands of years) shows that rhythm makes things stick in your brain. Music is the reason we remember advertising jingles and song lyrics for decades after we have forgotten most of what we learned at school.

All LoopSkool chants are recorded by professional male and female voice artists from Beijing with standard Beijing accents: the desired accent for learners of Mandarin Chinese.

LOOPSKOOL KEEPS TRACK OF YOUR PROGRESS

At any time, you can see how you’re doing. The activities keep track of your accuracy and speed, showing you which chants you have memorized well and which ones need more attention.
