This intermediate-level Mandarin course builds on the foundation laid in the first book of the series. It consists of 24 lessons designed for 3 hours of class instruction per week over an academic year, supplemented by 2-3 hours of outside practice using the accompanying workbook. Suitable for self-study, the course includes extensive explanations and free supplementary materials like online audio, video recordings, and flashcards. Completion takes approximately 25 to 35 weeks, focusing on listening, speaking, reading, and writing Mandarin at a conversational level. Each lesson begins with a dialogue, featuring new vocabulary, grammar notes, and a reading section, along with extensive exercises found in the workbook. The textbook offers significant advantages, such as practical dialogues based on everyday experiences in China, simple grammar explanations, and reading exercises for new words. Free audio recordings by native speakers from various regions of China aid in mastering pronunciation and understanding different accents. Illustrations and video clips enhance the learning experience, while a Chinese-English dictionary at the back provides easy reference. The book employs both Chinese characters and Pinyin, catering to learners focused on spoken language. It is intended to be used alongside the workbook and downloadable audio files from Tuttle Publishing's website.
