Perfect for Real Beginners in Chinese Learning! This course is ideal for those who are just starting their journey in learning Chinese. The focus is on daily conversational skills using pinyin, with minimal involvement of Chinese characters. This approach is excellent for beginners, as it allows you to concentrate on speaking and understanding the language without the added pressure of memorizing characters at this stage. A standout feature of the course is the overall summary notes provided at the end, which include Chinese characters, their pinyin, and definitions. This is a great resource for revisiting what you've learned and gradually familiarizing yourself with the characters at your own pace. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to build a solid foundation in Chinese communication without feeling overwhelmed by the complexities of the writing system.
