PREFACE
A. Ten basic features of Learning Chinese
1. Provides instruction in spoken and written Mandarin; no prior background
assumed.
2. Serves as a comprehensive resource for the foundation levels of Chinese
language study. Learning Chinese (?rst year) and the forthcoming companion volume (second year) cover approximately 200 class hours.
3. Includes sample schedules for all 200 hours of class study.
4. Presents rich content (based on the author¡¯s own experience learning
Chinese) that is presented incrementally and in detail, is carefully
sequenced, and builds toward dialogues or narratives that recapitulate
important content.
5. Includes a variety of exercises and audio materials for self-study. The companion website, wheatley, provides a full set of audio clips, as
well as comprehensive vocabulary lists, exercise keys, and other features.
6. Contains content that is easily transformed into class activities, and easily
supplemented by online or other materials.
7. Includes conversational lessons and character lessons that can be used
separately or together.
8. Includes conversational and character lessons that are related but not identical to each other, and which can be interleaved.
9. Teaches reading with both the traditional (Taiwan) and simpli?ed (Mainland) character sets.
10. Teaches characters inductively, by emphasizing reading in context as much
as possible.

B. Ten general principles for using Learning Chinese
1. Prepare before class, perform in class, and consolidate after class.
2. Move from simple to complex, from familiar to novel, and from rote to
realistic.
3. Focus on typical interchanges, personalize them when possible, and compound them into longer conversations.
4. Recognize that Mandarin usage varies as much as English. Regard Learning
Chinese as a guide, but accept additional input from teachers and your own
observations.
5. Learn functional phrases rather than individual words; visualize interactions and match appropriate language; and act out scenarios from cues.
6. Distinguish character recognition from reading, and focus reading activities on comprehension.
7. Write characters to improve recognition ability, but utilize word processing
programs to compose texts.

8. Consolidate conversational skills while studying the character units; consolidate character skills while studying the conversational units.
9. As much as possible, learn language in context rather than from lists. (But
be mindful that lists can help with recall and review.)
10. Know the core, test the core (i.e., that practiced in class). For character
material, test comprehension.
