Thank you for these useful links. I took 3 Mandarin courses at edx. org. They are excellent!
The best of the free apps I've used so far to go along w/ this is Chinese skill, it teaches, and grades pronunciation, grammar, and usage. You have to complete the first 4 lessons and review completely to unlock the pronunciation tester.

Working on Spanish and just started Chinese. Thanks for the advice and info. I studied Thai in Thailand and am able to at least recognize tones and can function in that language. I know Chinese is much tougher but I already find it fascinating. I will keep checking in for insights Thanks again
