You don't need to know characters to speak Chinese! In fact, for English speakers, learning the characters is an inefficient process and slows down their ability to speak and understand the language. Respected Chinese language expert Dr Cornelius Kubler, who has taught diplomats, business people and students, presents a system that works. He uses separate, but integrated, ‘tracks’ to help you master spoken and written Chinese at beginner’s level. For further practice, turn to Practice Essentials for a wealth of carefully designed activities to solidify every aspect of your spoken Chinese skills. The CD-ROM contains over 11 hours of audio and printable PDF files with hundreds of exercises.

Reviews for Basic Spoken Chinese Practice Essentials Volume 1 Book & CD-ROM & Online Downloa

Kubler's books distinguish themselves with natural, culturally-rooted dialogues, detailed notes (for both written and spoken language), generous practice activities and an amazing care for organization. These books will be valuable tools for both students and their teachers. --Prof. Eric Pelzl, Wisconsin Lutheran College<p> An ingenious introduction -- Basic Spoken Chinese is the finest textbook for learning Modern Standard Mandarin that I have ever encountered. --Dr. Victor H. Mair, Professor of Chinese Language and Literature, University of Pennsylvania<p> The ideal material for any committed learner embarking on the journey of learning the Chinese language. --Dr. Jun Yang, Senior Lecturer in Chinese, University of Chicago<p> Revolutionary in its approach ... The dream of having engaged and fully-prepared students in every class is an easily reachable reality for any program that adopts this series. --Professor Cecilia Chang, Chair, Department of Asian Studies, Williams College<p> This is one of the best elementary Chinese textbooks, I believe, ever produced in the history of teaching Chinese as a second language ... A great and unique work which will benefit students and teachers for many years to come. --Dr. Shengli Feng, Professor of Chinese Linguistics, Chinese University of Hong Kong
