Mandarin Chinese - the Michel Thomas™ Method
Speak Mandarin Chinese: Foundation Course - Introduction
2CD language pack. 2 hours. AU $39.95
The first two CDs of the Mandarin Chinese Foundation Course (full Mandarin Chinese Foundation Course shown below)
On the recording you will hear two students being taught in real time and
in a classroom situation, so you are learning with others. You enjoy their
success and learn from their mistakes. You, as learner, become the third student
and participate actively in the class. In a very short time you will be able
to manipulate Mandarin Chinese structures to express what you want to say. Use the
unique method perfected over fifty years by the celebrated psychologist and
linguist Michel Thomas. The Method works with your brain, helping you to build
up your Mandarin Chinese in manageable, enjoyable steps by thinking out the answers
for yourself. You learn through listening and speaking - the way you learnt
your own language. You pick up the language naturally and unforgettably.
Dr Harold Goodman was trained by Michel Thomas to understand his Method of teaching. On these recordings he is assisted by native Mandarin speaker Jingtao Deng. These all-audio courses are accompanied by an index, where the Mandarin words are printed in Roman script and translated for easy reference.

Pursue the next stage in your study of Mandarin Chinese with Michel Thomas™
Method teacher, Dr Harold Goodman assisted by native Mandarin Chinese
speaker Jingtao Deng. You will rejoin her with two students who have completed
the equivalent of the first 8-hour course. Again, you will be the “third
student”, and will find that further learning is just as easy as the
first course. You will be able to (a) communicate in a wide variety of situations,
(b) form complicated and sophisticated sentences, and (c) use A-Level equivalent
phrases and structures and have a natural grasp of the language and entire
verb system.
It is a basic principle of the Michel Thomas™ method that the responsibility for the student's learning lies with the teacher. With Michel Thomas as your teacher, your learning will be based on understanding – and what you understand, you do not forget!
