J60 Mandarin Communications
Tutor: Ling Zhao
This course attaches great importance to the practicality of Mandarin, and the ideal outcome is that students can have a flexible use of Mandarin in their daily communication. This course will also facilitate students in Mandarin-speaking fluency, accuracy and pronunciation. If you are considering taking this course, it would be better if you are able to communicate in basic Mandarin (e.g. greeting, ordering, introducing oneself, etc.). The teaching materials will be tailored by the teacher to the language proficiency of the class.
Venue: Online via Zoom

There is coffee time in a local cafe after the walk, and a ten-minute break if the walk is longer than an hour. Wear comfortable shoes and a sun hat. New members are welcome.
