Level 2 Chinese
Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mrs M. Hamling.
This course is through correspondence ONLY and the requirement is that students are native speakers of Chinese.
This course builds on language already mastered in Level 1. Ākonga continue to develop general listening and speaking skills and expand their ability to read and write simplified characters. Over the year, ākonga learn how to communicate information about themselves and their friends, their home country and future plans, as well as how to write a CV. As with previous courses, a focus on Chinese culture is emphasised, and issues surrounding living in a foreign country and their customs and behaviour are covered.
Delivery Modes: This course is accessed through the online learning environment, My Te Kura. Ākonga will be required to make and submit audio and/or video recordings, so a microphone and camera or mobile device are essential.
You will need to have a conversation with Mrs Hamling before you are approved to do this course.
What should I have already done?
NCEA Level 1 Chinese or equivalent, and have a Chinese language background.
Course Contribution
