Shandi - Learn Mandarin Tones

Master Mandarin Tones and Speak with Confidence!

Mandarin Chinese is a tonal language, which means a slight shift in your voice pitch can change the entire meaning of a word. For many learners, mastering these tones—and the complex rules of how they change when spoken together—is the most challenging part of learning the language.

Shandi is your personal tone trainer, designed specifically to help you practice, visualize, and perfect your Mandarin tones and pronunciation.

Whether you are a beginner learning the four basic tones or an advanced student practicing complex tone changes, Shandi provides clear visual feedback and grading to help you speak like a native.


KEY FEATURES

1. Interactive Pitch Visualization
Stop guessing if your pronunciation is correct. Speak into the app and see your voice's tone curve drawn live on the screen next to a native guide curve. This instant visual feedback makes it easy to see exactly when to raise, dip, or flatten your pitch.

2. Guided Tone Pair & Word Workouts
Learn how tones interact in real speech. Practice word pairings and tone change rules step-by-step:
