About

大家好! Welcome to this course on the introduction of Mandarin Chinese! :) In this 15+ session course, we will be going forward with learning all the fundamentals of reading, writing, and communicating in Mandarin Chinese. The goal by the end of this series is that you will be able to start a simple conversation using Chinese with one another and read some easy Chinese picture books. Mandarin Chinese is a language that is getting more trendier to learn day by day, so it's definitely an important language to learn. Besides learning, we will also be having themed fun nights and Q&A sessions. Themed fun nights is where the session is based on a traditional Chinese holiday and we have fun related to the holiday. Q&A sessions are where burning questions related to Mandarin Chinese can be answered. The 15 sessions do not include orientation, final closing session, themed fun nights, and Q&A sessions. Please note that by signing up for this series, you will try your best to complete each assignment assigned at the end of each session, as that is the best way to practice learning a new language. Looking forward to seeing y'all join! 🤩🤩🤩 ----------------------------------------------------------- Course Resources: - Shared Folder ~ - Duolingo ~
