BOYA Chinese Course Brochure

Mandarin beginning course is designed for students who study Chinese from starch (zero level) or some who have a little foundation. This course covers all four skills, and it aims to provide everything students need to master the language; it is complete with interactive activities, cultural appreciation, and detailed grammar explanations.

Everything you need in one course

Mandarin beginning course combines scenario pedagogy with the thorough grammatical explanation. Topics are selected exquisitely and also broadly, making sure that students have many opportunities to consolidate their learning in real life.

Differentiated approach

This course facilities a differentiated classroom by presenting a wide range of activity types, from word recognition to creative writing. Activities are categorized into three levels. The first level of activity introduces a new topic or structure, allowing for plenty of repetition and imitation. The second level encourages fluency and flexibility with the language.

The third level helps students work on either creative or language use while learning Chinese: Each section contains different themed activities, from delivering a Chinese speech to conducting a Chinese social survey; from opening your stores to introducing steps of cooking your specialty dish. Each “after-class unit” contains the most challenging activities: These require students to combine their new knowledge with one situation or context in life.

Movies/Music facilitate Chinese learning

We’re dedicated to providing students a real-life learning environment, so selected Chinese movies, music, short videos, interviews are embedded during the class learning.
