✦
These courses cover the “Big Four” of language (speaking, listening, reading, writing, with some fun cultural bits thrown in as well), with a heavy emphasis on speaking and listening. Materials are provided to help you with reading and writing, but most students choose to work on those skills on their own time.
✦
Classes usually have no more than 5-6 people in them, so you still get the feel of a semi-private lesson without the cost!
✦
Classes have a fun, laidback feel to them. Didn’t get to do the homework one week? No problem! Looking for friends to practice your Chinese skills with? A lot of our students meet up with each other outside of class! These classes were made with adult language learners in mind. Rote memorization is for your school days!
