Learning Chinese, or any other language, to be honest, takes a lot of time and concentration since every language comes with its own set of rules, writing techniques, grammar, and pronunciation.

However, instead of hiring a teacher or trying to learn it all by yourself, you might consider using specialized software solutions such as Chinese Master that can simplify the process.

As its name proudly suggests, this application was designed to help you learn Chinese while on your computer in a simple, convenient manner by associating words, letters, images and definitions.

Selecting an item in the list provides you with a broad range of information about it such as its symbol, pronunciation, some examples of it being used inside a word or even a sentence, in order to learn it quicker.

Depending on your learning needs, you can access several modules from the list by choosing from "Basic," "Elementary," and "Advance." Each section comes with its own sub-modules so that you don't have to browse aimlessly, looking for certain features.

They are grouped as follows: the "Basic" category contains "Initials," "Finals" and "Spelling" modes, "Elementary" consists of "Flash Cards," "Single Word," "Translation," "Write" and "HSK," while the "Advance" section provides you with access to "Dialog," "Lesson," "Exercise," "Dictionary" and "Reading Comprehension" modes.

If you've decided to start learning Chinese and can't afford a teacher, you might consider giving Chinese Master a try, since it provides you with everything you need in order to reach the wanted level as quick and efficient as possible.
