Chinese Evening Classes for Beginners - 10 Week Course
Chinese Evening Classes for Beginners
Following the successful development of the Teaching Pack for Chinese Culture and Language for Transition Year in 2012, the UCD Confucius Institute for Ireland and the Irish Institute for Chinese Studies at UCD have been offering a Professional Diploma and a Masters in Teaching Chinese Language and Culture for school teachers since 2014. All these efforts are laying the path for Leaving Cert Chinese in the near future.
It is our pleasure to announce that the UCD Confucius Institute will continue to offer Chinese evening class to Irish school teachers from January 2022.
This is a 15-hour evening course designed for:
· Teachers who are interested in studying the Professional Diploma in Teaching Chinese Language and Culture, but have no previous learning experience of Chinese.

·Start building up language capacity to teach simple and basic Chinese words or phrases to pupils;
·Lay a solid foundation for further study of Chinese language.
