Part II of the Chinese course for young students continues the emphasis on everyday spoken Chinese, and the introduction to Chinese language and culture. Students will continue to develop listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. By the end of the two-part course, students will have been introduced to most of the important grammatical structures of spoken Chinese and a vocabulary of about 700 lexical items. With the language skills acquired during this course, students should be able to survive most of the simple daily conversational situations. Students interact with the instructors and other students using Internet-based software. Course materials include a textbook and a workbook purchased separately by the student. Biweekly interactive virtual online sessions are held in the evenings (both EST and PST). A school's need to hold daytime sessions for its students will be honored whenever possible. Separate conversation sessions between each student and the instructor or teaching assistant are arranged individually. 12 weeks
