Learners will acquire new knowledge in each class, including new characters, vocabulary, sentence patterns and Pinyin. When students learn new sentence patterns, we will simulate a scenario involving watching TV, and provide corresponding pronunciation (natural human voice) to make content easier to remember. During practice classes, role-playing games are used to make course content more compelling, while also helping learners to use what they learn flexibly.
