The Beginner Chinese course is designed for learners with zero or no previous systematic study of the Chinese language. If you are interested in Chinese but have no clue where to start, this is the best option for you. Whatever your learning goals, the Beginner Chinese course helps you to practice Chinese pronunciation, and build language scaffolding to lay a solid foundation for future learning.

The Beginner Chinese course teaching material is based on the HSK series textbook (Level 1 and Level 2). It includes a wealth of practice activities to increase the rate of recurrence of language points and sentence patterns, effectively helping students to repeat the exercises and build a good foundation in Chinese language learning. Students are expected to understand 300 vocabularies after completion of HSK Level 2. At the end of each session, the tutor will send the materials to the students for self-study and revision.
