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: leisure activities, lifestyle and Chinese idioms


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 leisure activities 
  • Talk about different types of lifestyle
  • Understand and use Chinese idiomatic expressions
  • 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?

This course is suitable if you have completed level 3 lower or have an equivalent intermediate level of Chinese. A working knowledge of 500-600 characters would be an advantage.

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.
