They teach you to speak Chinese

The tradition of holding open classes by teachers of the Department of Foreign Languages and Intercultural Communication in order to share experiences with each other continues. The first such lesson in the autumn semester was held in the IN-22-1,2 group on the discipline “Professionally oriented second foreign language (level B1)”. The topic of the practical lesson “我打算去商店东东东” means “I plan to go to the store for shopping.”

Anastasia Vyacheslavovna, a novice teacher of the Chinese language, showed the colleagues present how it is possible to conduct a practical lesson in a rather unusual, interesting, at a good pace, using bright visual materials and videos created by the students themselves as homework, a textbook on the Chinese language created by native speakers, and modern applications, in which the speech of the most beautiful sounded Students actively demonstrated the skills of freely conducting a dialogue on the topic of the lesson, while exchanging opinions with each other and with the teacher.

The purpose of the lesson was to consolidate the skills of planning actions in the studied second foreign language using the already familiar rather complex grammatical structures of speech and new material. Students learned to compose simple and complex sentences expressing a sequence of actions and describing their plans and intentions using familiar lexical and grammatical structures. Along the way, training was carried out in writing new hieroglyphs related to the lexical topic, and further development of calligraphy skills. The Quizlet service helped to summarize the results of the students’ completion of control tasks by the end of the practical lesson.

Those present noted the creative approach of students to completing all the tasks of the teacher, a great desire to listen and understand the language being studied, speak and write in it, making efforts for this. A lot of learning a foreign language depends on the teacher’s ability to “teach” and the student’s desire to “learn”. Both of these factors coincide in Chinese language classes. The success of both sides is assured.
