Teaching Approach:

1. Needs Assessment: I will begin by conducting a needs assessment to understand the learner's level, goals, and preferences.

3. Mandarin, the bulk of the class time will be spent on dialogue and real-life situations.
4. Foundation Building: For beginners, I'll start with the basics of Pinyin, tones, and simple vocabulary, laying the groundwork for more complex skills.
5. Interactive Lessons: I believe in a participative approach where students actively speak, listen, write, and read. Activities may include role-playing, interactive exercises, and quizzes.
6. Cultural Context: I will include elements of Chinese culture, history, and current events into the lessons to give a well-rounded understanding of the language.
