Hello all, I am looking for courses that may help improve listening. I have tried a few courses which are the HSK1-3 courses by audio. But because they are multiple choice I do not get much out of them at all. They have only helped me get to a point where when I listen to something I can say “Yep, I’ve heard that word before” but it takes quite a while to retrieve the meaning. So, I am looking for a course which prompts pinyin and then the user types in English. Because I feel like this would be more helpful than being prompted with a character and typing the pinyin. I am at the point now where I can read quite well, and read out loud well, but when listening, my brain does not retrieve the meaning quick enough. But, perhaps my thought is misguided. I would like to hear any input on this. For the record, I do practice listening outside of Memrise using textbooks, but the vocabulary is limited, so I would like to be able to expand my listening vocabulary with Memrise, if possible.
Thanks for reading !
