Level Basic Category Chinese Learning Textbooks for Adults Description The Practical Audio-Visual Chinese 2nd edition has been developed by the Ministry of Education of ROC, updated from "Practical Audio-Visual Chinese", edited and written by the Editing and Compiling Committee of National Taiwan Normal University. The new version comprises a large-scale revision with regard to content, issue, lexicon, and up to date ways and practices. Meanwhile, the five major objectives of teaching this second language are designed to echo international Chinese teaching trends. These are incorporated within the teaching materials so that learning Chinese should no longer so difficult. It is thus considered to be the benchmark and practical learning material for domestic and overseas Chinese.
“ | When you're choosing a language-learning program, the only important question is whether it works. That's why we developed Dynamic Immersion™, our award-winning method for teaching new languages the same way you learned your native language.
