How Does It Work

Chinese Reading and Writing 3 is the third course of the series, designed for non-Chinese speakers to learn Chinese reading and writing efficiently and effectively. It is also a viable solution for heritage learners whose spoken Mandarin is way better than their command of Chinese characters. 

This course teaches 50 new characters, accompanied by a fast increase of vocabularies made up of a total of 170 frequently used Chinese characters, which enable students to read and write longer and more expressive Chinese texts.

Additional worksheets are provided for students to further improve reading comprehension and their writing clarity.

Chinese Learning Pen is an audio tool which allow students to play any part of the texts in the book. It is instrumental in accelerating their character recognition process and improving their pronunciations.

On completing the course, students will have further developed their abilities in deconstructing the texts and constructing the meaning, and in writing Chinese texts. This course is definitely a confidence booster.

A review chapter is in place at the end of the book. This is where learnings are consolidated and assessed. How well students complete the exercises in the review chapter demonstrates their progress.
