What is the course about?

The course aims to build on the language and skills that you have acquired in the previous four years or more and to extend your range of vocabulary and communicative competence. It also aims to consolidate your reading and writing of Chinese characters.

What will we cover?

Topics: housing, buying a car and environmental problems

Grammar: A revision of grammar points, character writing and pronunciation.

The course will focus on the transfer of the language from 'Pinyin' to Chinese characters and character writing

What will I achieve?
By the end of this course you should be able to...

  • talk about housing issues
  • talk about buying a car in China
  • talk about environmental problems
  • recognise 60 new characters and new words
  • use a wide range of sentence patterns in both spoken and written forms

What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?

Students should have completed Chinese 3 upper: module 1, or studied Chinese for approximately 4 years recently or have developed an equivalent competence in the language. For further details of the specific foreign language skills required for this level, please see the languages self-assessment chart at the start of the languages section of our course guide, or at https://www.citylit.ac.uk/self-assess-your-level. You will also need to be able to respond to simple instructions and explanations, as well as read course documents, in English.  You will need to be at ease with the use of numbers for  daily activities (e.g. using money, telling the time, using the 24 hour clock, reading timetables).  It would also be helpful if you had some knowledge of basic grammar terminology such as: a verb, a noun and conjugation.

How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?

Our courses are characterised by spoken interaction and communication. Typical activities include pair work, group work, role plays and games. A range of resources will be used to support your learning including presentations, hand-outs, and audio-visual material.

Homework is highly recommended to consolidate learning.

Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?

This course combines the tutor's own materials with content from Discover China Student's Book 2. Please check with your teacher before purchasing, as some tutors may or may not use this book in their lessons.
