Course description
This beginner’s course focuses on pronunciations of Mandarin Chinese as well as using Mandarin to conduct simple daily conversations by building up basic vocabularies, sentence structures, and grammars. Drills from each class take same structures as the Chuken. It doesn’t only help students practice what they learn from classes, it will also enable them to become familiar with the forms and tendencies of the real Chuken test.
