New Approaches to Learning Chinese: is a set of course books specially designed with new approaches for non-Chinese background students beginning to learn Chinese. There are three courses in this set: Intensive Spoken Chinese, the Most Common Chinese Radicals, and Rapid Literacy in Chinese. Based on the thinking that spoken and written forms of Chinese can be taught and learned more efficiently separately at beginning level, these three courses are independent from one another yet integrated into a whole.
Beginning with pinyin only, instead of dealing with both pronunciation and character recognition, students will find the Spoken Chinese course easy to master, and will be able to communicate in Chinese much sooner.
The concentrated training in character learning will enable the student to enter the reading stage in an unprecedentedly short time and taste the satisfaction and enjoyment of fluent comprehension.
In the Radicals book, the students will be attracted by the rich content of culture and art embodied in Chinese characters, which, instead of being the “stumbling blocks” they have often been considered, become “magnets” drawing them step by step to the innermost charm of the Chinese language.
This set of books can be used as teaching reference materials for Chinese teachers in primary and secondary schools, providing new ideas and teaching materials for improving teaching effectiveness. They can also be used as textbooks for senior secondary, tertiary and adults students to learn Chinese.
