Through conversational exercises, you develop fluency in a relaxed atmosphere with our Mandarin instructor. The use of Pin-Yin, the rendition of Chinese characters in the Latin alphabet, facilitates the learning process for students. The course is designed for those who have had no previous exposure to Mandarin language learning. The focus is on phonetic practice and on creating basic sentences. The communicative approach and authentic materials used in the program enable you to conduct simple, useful conversations and prepare for Mandarin beginners in further learning in school.
