DVD Reviews of Follow Jade! Learn Chinese: Let's Go To Market in China
DVD Review: Excellent for Learning Chinese
Summary: 5 Stars
Both of my children (ages 3 and 5) love the Follow Jade DVDs. I have found that they have learned much more Chinese from Follow Jade than any other DVD that we have tried. Even their Chinese teachers at school were impressed by how they knew all their colors, fruits and more - all from watching Follow Jade. We would love to see more DVDs and are hoping that there will be more someday!
DVD Review: great chinese learning product!

Summary: 4 Stars
I am an adoptive father of a daughter from Anhui, China. I have the Jade videos to try to help us learn some Chinese. My daughter enjoys the Jade videos. Thanks to this one she can count to 10 in Chinese. I just wish there were more videos in the series than just two.DVD Review: Sometimes less is more.
Summary: 5 Stars
My 4-year old and I both like this DVD. It covers fruit names, animals and parts of the body. Some will say this is not much for the money. Some may also say the quality is not as good as Disney. But the video creates a warm and comfortable environment for the younger learners. Clean, light and fun. Jade is an excellent teacher speaking great mandarin Chinese (and English). The "theme song" - (in Chinese)"1,2,3,4,5,6,7, where are my friends..."- is a big draw for kids first learning Chinese. Some other rhymes are also very memorable. Great pacing and many reinforcements.
I saw some comments regarding Chinese learning videos' variable sound volume when real people speaking Chinese. And I smile, because that is exactly what Chinese is. The Chinese phonetics varies a lot more than English. It is a lot less "sing-songy". If you learn Chinese the "pronouced" way - to pronouce every character by the right tone and length, you would be "reading in monotone" , not "talking". I agree you probably should start learning this way, but it is through subtle variations of tone, length and volume that you deliver this most complex language of its true meaning.
DVD Review: Excellent for kids and a great help for students
Summary: 4 Stars
Follow Jade is a very good way of discovering the Chinese language. It is also a good teaching support for students, though it is a bit expensive (30 minutes). As a private tutor, I bought it to help my students who are beginners and it really helped them, since it is very entertaining, they learn a lot without realising it.
