Introductory Vietnamese

This is a foundational course for learners of Vietnamese from the beginning level, aiming to build and develop proficiency in all four language skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing) with a balanced approach between conversational and grammatical instruction. Alongside with new vocabulary and grammatical structures, instructions on cultural awareness will also be given to help students make informed and nuanced choice of words and patterns. Multi-media and web-based contents facilitate students to self pace their out-of-class practices and drills to achieve the learning goals in the desirable period of time.
