Course Outline

Teaching Objectives and Core Competencies

The course aims to strengthen students’ Chinese listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.  The theme arrangement of the course is based on the spiral progression and the conical ascending; therefore, the vocabulary is increased, the grammar depth is improved, the theme range is expanded, and the various fields are expanded.  Diverse themes in various fields are integrated into teaching and activity design, combined with relevant practical content, to improve students’ Chinese communication skills.

Course Design

Class is ranging from 5 to 10 students in order to maintain a high quality of teaching.  We emphasize practical application.  Therefore, we choose Modern Chinese as our textbook. Its content is lively and full of commonly used words.  Since electronic devices have been part of our life, this book has online audio files, including vocabulary and example sentences, grammar, dialogues, short texts, and homework.

Due to the opening of Chinese learning purpose visas (FR), more and more people come to Taiwan to learn Chinese.  Students who come to Taiwan with an FR visa are required to take more than 15 hours of Chinese language courses per week. Therefore, in addition to the Fall Class and Spring Class, our center also designed various short-term and intensive courses to meet the students’ learning requirements.  If you are using other visas and you are already living in Taiwan, there is no restriction on the number of study hours, and you are welcome to apply for these courses.   The registration for Short-term Class and Summer/Winter Intensive Class will be open once the course is ready.

The issuance of a visa is an act of national sovereignty. The Republic of China reserves the right to refuse issuance without explaining the reason. The fee for applying for a visa will not be refunded.
