Have you considered a “Challenge” mode where a user can simply see what “level” they’re at? The Pimsleur app has a more natural fixed progression and also a spaced repetition feature (I think) but running a challenge on an older class definitely gives me a feeling of “okay, I definitely know this material”.

And for what it’s worth, I’ve been able to sufficiently communicate some basics with my wife’s family in Mandarin that has them thrilled with me. So the learning in P is working somewhat.
