About 350 characters are introduced.

Students will be able to converse and read on daily topics such as greetings, introducing oneself and family, hobbies, shopping, college life, and transportation. Students will also learn how to hand-write and type Chinese characters.

Course Requirements:

Quizzes, homework assignments, unit tests, oral presentations, class participation and attendance, and final exam

Intended Audience:

ASIANLAN 101 is an introductory course for students who have zero prior knowledge of Chinese. This course is not for heritage speakers.
