Chinese I (Mandarin)

Learn con­ver­sa­tion­al Man­darin while explor­ing aspects of Chi­nese life and cul­ture. Through oral prac­tice and con­ver­sa­tion­al exer­cis­es you devel­op flu­en­cy in a com­fort­able lan­guage learn­ing envi­ron­ment with an expe­ri­enced Man­darin instruc­tor. The use of Pin-Yin, the Chi­nese char­ac­ters in the Latin alpha­bet, facil­i­tates the learn­ing process for stu­dents at the intro­duc­to­ry lev­el. We will cov­er the Intro­duc­tion Chap­ter up to Les­son 5 in the Inte­grat­ed Chi­nese textbook.
