Introduction to Bilingual Level 1 Course

The Bilingual Level 1 course utilizes the ‘Young Chinese’ Dialogue Level 1 textbook, which is specifically designed for non-Chinese speakers and covers levels 1 through 10. Its purpose is to provide an effective learning resource for non-Chinese speakers to develop their Chinese language skills in reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The textbook is closely aligned with the standards set by the Office of Chinese Language Council International, which created the YCT and HSK standard Chinese language exams. It is also tailored to meet the requirements of the SAT-II/AP Chinese exams.

‘Young Chinese’ Level 1 is a beginner class that focuses on introducing common conversations, Chinese characters, phrases, sentences, and culture. The course is comprised of 12 lessons, including 135 characters and 58 phrases. The teacher supplements the lessons with related topics, and by the end of the school year, students will have mastered more characters and phrases. The topics covered in the lessons are related to daily life, making them easy to practice and memorize. By the end of the course, students will be able to have everyday life conversations with their peers. Additionally, the course introduces Chinese character structure and the meanings of common radical components.

‘Young Chinese’ Level 1 students receive a textbook, two exercise books, and one character book, which provides them with comprehensive learning materials to support their language acquisition.
