5. Students’ Feedback I like being able to replay the video if I need to hear pronunciation again. I like that I can repeat the pronunciation in my own room. I like that I can refer to the lesson whenever I need to. It is nice to be able to watch a video and then prove you understand concepts. The concepts are presented very well. I understand material very well after watching the videos usually.

6. I really enjoy the learning environment and the small class size. I enjoy talking to my classmates and learning Chinese in such a collaborative way. I also really enjoy not having class 5 days a week and the flexibility of this class

7. I like the pace of the class and the focus on speaking and pronunciation. I like that we learn the material outside of class and practice it in class. I like the small class size. This format has been good so far. Most of the concepts are a review, so it has been nice because if you don't understand you can rewatch as much as you want. But also if you understand the first time you don't have to re- do it.

8. Special Thanks to the Office of Digital Learning for Its Generous Support of the Course Development
