This course is designed for Beginners who would like to learn Chinese pronunciation and try to use the language patterns to express themselves.
On this course, you will be introduced to the key elements of Chinese phonetics, including the four main tones and main rules of spelling. You will also cover everyday language like greetings, basic questions, and numbers. After learning the Chinese pronunciation, we will focus on the following six topics of conversation:
Basic greetings and self-introduction
Family members and different jobs
Ordering food and making payments
Dates and time
Weather and health
Asking directions and making plans
In addition, our course will introduce Chinese characters required by HSK1 and shed light on Chinese culture. By the end of the course, you will not only be able to use daily Chinese to express yourself, but also discover a new world through studying a language different from your mother language.
