Course Description: With engaging content and an effective teaching approach, our courses are designed to help students learn Chinese with ease and confidence. Our classes promote active learning by using vocabulary and sentence structures in real-life contexts and creating situations where students can apply what they’ve learned. We also keep class sizes small to ensure each student has ample opportunities to interact and practice speaking Chinese with the instructor and peers. 

We offer classes at various levels to meet students' different learning needs. All students—except complete beginners—will take a placement assessment before starting their
course. Our curriculum covers the four essential skills of language learning: listening, speaking, reading, and writing, with a stronger emphasis on conversation.

Conversational Chinese Syllabus

*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
