【徵人：免費學中文（2-4 週）】(中文版，請看最下面）
Are you thinking of starting to learn Chinese? Have you tried to learn before but been left feeling frustrated by traditional teaching methods? If so, we might be able to help you.
We’re currently looking for volunteers to participate in a new course that we’re designing. It will cost you nothing to participate (aside from your own time). Our only request is that you can give us some feedback during and after each lesson.
Our course is designed to make use of results from language acquisition research: we want to help people learn in a natural way. We will focus on developing your ability to listen and understand spoken Chinese in a low-stress environment. You won’t need to memorise vocabulary or grammar rules, you won’t need a textbook, and we won’t make you sit exams. (That is a promise.)
In particular, we’re looking for people that satisfy the following criteria:
- complete beginner at Chinese; OR
- have studied before at beginner level, but stopped, possibly out of frustration
- you really want to learn
- aged 18 or above (N.B. no upper age limit: anyone is welcome)
- able to move around independently (our lessons will include some movement)
- all nationalities are welcome
###Timing
Our course will last from 2 to 4 weeks, for 6 to 9 hours each week (split up into 2 or 3 sessions per week). We can teach either during the afternoon or during the evening on most days. (Mornings are unfortunately not possible.)
###Location
We’re in the Wenshan area of Taipei. (More details available on request.)
###How do I apply?
If you’re interested, please send an email to fairyccc@gmail.com with the following details: (please note we cannot respond to private Forumosa messages)
