Course synopsis

Nǐ hǎo! Have you ever wanted to learn Mandarin?  Start your Chinese journey here in our fun, interactive class. We’ll focus on listening, speaking and reading this beautiful language from the very beginning. By the end of the 11-week course, you’ll feel confident understanding and communicating in basic Mandarin sentences, and we’ll also read a short book in Mandarin!  

Whether creating simple stories, discussing aspects of Chinese culture, or reading together, our aim is to enjoy the process of acquiring the language in a stress-free, relaxed and effective way.  

This 11-week course assumes no prior knowledge of Mandarin, so it is suitable for absolute beginners.  Please note that there will be no class on 21st October (the week before half-term). 

Please email me if you have any questions about the course: liz_syed@yahoo.com
