Our Chinese Upper-Intermediate 1 Course is designed for students who has finished Level 3 learning or are able to do the below:

This course will focus on vocabulary building on a range of topics that are closed to daily life, at the same time the questions asked are more abstract or detailed, so as to practise speaking with organised thoughts, with specific vocabularies. The 5 headline topics in this course are 爱情，友谊，工作，赚钱，购物。Students will practise their listening skills by listening to native speakers on video answering various related questions in unfiltered language, then students will follow suite to practise answering these questions with their own options and stories.

There are 4 courses at this level, we recommend students to always start from lower level of the courses, or to pick a class where your level is most aligned with the classmates.
