Chinese 2
Chinese 2 enables students to further develop the communicative skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing of Mandarin Chinese at a more advanced level. Students are immersed in Chinese culture as virtual exchange students in China, and discover even more deeply how language is a tool God has blessed us with to deepen relationships no matter where we go. Virtual excursions from one Chinese city to another expand students’ vocabulary, helping them learn to interact with others and to use appropriate terms to communicate in various everyday situations.
This course is approved by the NCAA® and the University of California.
