This course is designed based on the syllabus of international Chinese schools. Each textbook has 12 units and is divided into 4 volumes. Each volume is an four-week course. At the end of the first volume, students will learn basic daily conversation (listening and speaking) .And writing skills. Each class provides online practice activities after class to help students review and strengthen their memory. This class is designed for beginning level students . The course is a 4 -week long and about 40 minutes each class. This beginner level course is designed to teach practical language skills for everyday use including greeting oneself, asking questions about friends and family, responding, telling, and choosing, numbers, foods, likes and dislikes. All four language aspects of Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing will be incorporated into the class structure. Dialogues, games, and light homework assignments will help the student to internalize the teachings. The student will have ample time to interact with a native speaker, ask questions, and share ideas with the class as participation is essential to active learning. As someone who has learned foreign languages, I understand the challenges and the concerns that a learner experiences. To this point, it is my mission to encourage the student's confidence and to not scare them away from achieving the gift of communicating in a foreign language. Language communication should be fun!
Learning Goals
By the end of this 4-week course ,students entering with little understanding of Chinese should be able to talk and ask about likes & dislikes, use "How Much? How many?
