Chinese Language Course for Researchers at Upper-intermediate Level
This course will consist of three sessions of intensive teaching in late September, mid-April and early September. Each teaching session will be followed by a term (8-9 weeks) of online learning with feedback from the BICC language teachers. A formal language test will take place at the end of the second intensive session in April.
Aim
The course will focus on reading speaking and listening skills, but there will be reinforcement and enhancement of these skills though the written tasks.
Objectives
1. To encourage the development of a high level of learner autonomy in the field of Chinese language study
2. To enable learners to put a wide range of essential communication skills into practice
3. To enable learners to read Chinese newspapers and relevant texts with confidence
Students will have to spend at least two hours a day studying new materials, and revising spoken and written texts and lexis.
