Mandarin Foundation Course A were created from years of real teaching experience. Many students wanted a beginner textbook that felt friendly, practical, and not overwhelming. So the A and B books were designed with real-life communication at the center.

Book A starts with people.

You'll learn how to introduce yourself and others, ask questions, talk about nationality, describe where you live, introduce family members, talk about jobs and daily routines, and make simple suggestions. Phrases like "Where do you live?", "This is my husband," and "Let's go to the park" appear throughout because they are truly useful.

This book contain:

• Practical vocabulary
• Clear grammar explanations
• Gradual practice exercises
• Realistic dialogues

Each lesson is built around situations you will actually experience, making the language memorable and usable. Whether you are learning on your own or teaching others, the lessons can easily be adapted to different needs.

After completing both books, you'll be able to introduce yourself, make small talk, talk about family, tell time, discuss prices, talk about the weather, leave messages, and share contact information-

communicating naturally and confidently in everyday Chinese.
