This course is the continuation of the previous course, Chinese 2.1. It is for students who have completed Chinese 2.1 or approximately 80 hours of tuition. This course enables learners, who have established basic foundations in learning Chinese, to further develop the four language skills as well as the ability to communicate in social settings. By the end of the course students should be able to grasp more grammatical concepts and sentence structures systematically, which will enable them to communicate more fluently. Students should recognize most of the characters in the textbook and be able to write more characters.
Students should have completed either Chinese 2.1 or equivalent.
The course is tutorial based with a combination of class activity and group work; use of audio-visual material as teaching aids (CDs and DVDs).
In order to fully benefit from the course and to achieve the learning outcomes, students are expected to spend 1-2 hours per week on revision and homework.
By the end of the course students should be able to:
Textbook: Wu Zhongwei. Contemporary Chinese for Beginners. Beijing: Sinolingua, 2010.
