At Washburn, we offer Chinese language classes. During the first semester, students learn how to communicate with native speakers in basic sentences.

Communication topics include meeting new or old friends, scheduling activities, inviting friends for specific occasions, talking about one’s self, family members, and friends (personal information, hobbies, food preference, schooling).

Students also have opportunities to communicate online using alphabet system (pinyin system).

Additionally, you will have opportunities to learn Chinese folk arts, songs, and other culturally related activities.
