Mandarin (Chinese) Course - Level One

This beginner level course is designed for students who have no prior experience with the Mandarin Chinese Language.

This course will teach the basics in reading, writing, and speaking in the Mandarin language. This will be accomplished through several means.

Firstly, as you progress through this course you will expand your Mandarin Chinese vocabulary through the systematic introduction of new words found in day-to-day conversation.

Second, to improve your reading and listening skills, the instructor will provide clearly spoken words and phrases as they read through the course material. The student has the option to play back any section of the course as required until they feel ready to move on to the next level.

Writing skills will be mastered through writing practice sheets that the student can download at any point in time as they progress through each section. Quizzes are also provided and allow the student to regularly test how much of the course material they have retained.

Regular introduction of common Chinese Idioms is made throughout the course and serves a two-fold purpose. It teaches students how to express ideas concisely as well as provides an opportunity to practice newly learned material.

After successful completion of this course a student will have the Chinese Language Proficiency to take the next course in the series which is called Mandarin (Chinese) Course -  Level 2.
