I had my doubts but I got blown away!
I must admit, I was absolutely sure that this method would NVER work for me. And, initially, the method did not work. But, having a real desire to learn Chinese characters, I persisted beyond the first couple of days. Slowly but surely the concept began to sink in for me and now I absolutely love it and I feel so empowered. Now everyday I look forward to what Chinese character and/or word will be unlocked fo me!!
