Nǐ Hǎo and Welcome!

ABC Languages Total Beginner Mandarin is for students with little or no background in Mandarin. Students may choose to enroll for 6, 8, or 12 weeks (textbook included in all enrollment packages). 

In the first 6 weeks students will be introduced to the tones, pin-yin (the romanized version of Chinese), and basic conversation.  In 8-12 weeks, students can expect to continue to build on their vocabulary, speaking, and reading skills including an introduction to Chinese characters.

To reserve a space you need only sign up for the minimum 6 weeks and may upgrade to a longer enrollment by your 2nd class. 12-week enrollments  include 1 make-up class (a 13th consecutive class) for a missed lesson.

As with all of our groups, once a class is started it will be ongoing with flexible enrollment options. 

We hope to see you here soon!
