📚Textbooks
Uses 汉语会话301句 (Conversational Chinese 301) Vols. 1–2 (Beijing Language and Culture University Press, with Japanese notes). Starts with mastering pinyin.
🎯Course Goals
Build enough Chinese for travel, greetings, and basic exchanges. Ideal for students starting Chinese in high school or university, or anyone preparing for a trip or business visit to China.
Target exam: HSK Level 3.
Pronunciation is the hardest part of Chinese — build a solid foundation with your tutor in the introductory course.
📌Other notes
NetChai's Introductory & Basic Course is equivalent to the beginner level at most Chinese schools. Because the jump to intermediate is steep and many learners drop out there, NetChai splits the beginner stage into two courses: Introductory & Basic and Beginner.
