Beijing Chinese Language Program Intensive Chinese for All Students, Offered All Year Round
The goals of CET's Beijing Chinese Language program are
twofold: rapid improvement of language skills and a solid understanding of
contemporary Chinese society. Weekly themes integrate the intensive
curriculum--a lecture class might introduce the "Chinese family"; family
planning policies are debated during drill class; students interview a Chinese
family for language practicum. A full-time language pledge and dorm rooms
shared with local Chinese students round out this rigorous program.
Based in Beijing at the site of the CET's Beijing Chinese Language program, our four-week Janterm provides students a running start to
the spring term. The curriculum, designed to emphasize oral skills and build a
foundation for further language study, requires constant interaction between
students and their teachers, their Chinese roommates and local Beijing'ers. The
full-time language pledge further helps students "warm up" for the longer spring
term that follows.
