Mandarin Chinese is now a popular choice when looking for a second language to learn. Learning in small groups can benefit students in a lot of ways. In my small group classes, each student will be given opportunities to practice speaking Mandarin. I will utilize games, hands-on activities to help engage students with learning.  Besides, students can connect and converse easily with their peers. This makes it more comfortable for them to speak Mandarin with each other. Moreover, personal feedback will be provided after each session. 

With this small group lesson, students will be able to learn Mandarin faster and even be a pro in no time. We usually start with pinyin instruction and then we will have a new topic to work on each week. Mandarin can not only be able to connect you with a new culture, but also to prepare yourself for the future! 

Here is the 10-week plan for the ongoing lesson.
Week 1: Basic Greetings, pinyin
Week 2: Colors & Numbers
Week 3: Animals vocabulary
Week 4: My family & Self-introduction

Week 7: Time, Days of the Week
