 Lyceum Language Centre Nĭ Hăo! Australia’s economy is becoming increasingly more global, requiring close co-operation with our Asian neighbours. Lyceum’s Mandarin Chinese courses are often requested by professionals who need a working knowledge of the language. Other students are drawn to Chinese because it has the largest number of speakers of any language in the world. At Lyceum, Chinese is taught using the communicative method, meaning that there is a very strong focus on the spoken language as it is used in practical everyday situations. The characters used in written Chinese are explained, and teachers discuss the most essential ones however, the majority of class time is aimed towards achieving fluency in speaking. After 60 hours of tuition (levels 1-4), our students can manage in most common everyday situations encountered in China. The beginner levels focus on the following broad areas:
This level is recommended to people who wish to travel to a Chinese-speaking country, and also for those who plan to use Chinese with their family and friends here in Melbourne. As part of your course, our teachers will encourage you to seek out the Chinese speaking community in Melbourne, in order to help you practice your speaking and listening skills. Melbourne has a large population of Chinese speakers, which affords you great opportunities to practice the language and learn about the culture. Teachers will give you information about the Chinese radio and television programmes, and newspapers available in Melbourne, and also about Chinese festivals & events in Melbourne. As a group you will pool information about the best Melbourne Chinese restaurants, Chinese food stores, bookshops and Chinese clubs to help you further immerse yourself in the culture. With Lyceum's help, groups often plan outings together. The simplicity of Chinese grammar means that the language can quickly be learnt once pronunciation has been mastered. Our small class sizes, combined with native speaking teachers, ensure that the potential of each student can be achieved. Each level of study at Lyceum corresponds to 15 hours of adult tuition, or twelve to eighteen months at high school. Check our course guide to see which level would suit you best, then call us to discuss and confirm.
