Introduction to Chinese


Adult and Senior / World Language -
Adult Enrichment 2025-2026

Ready to say ni hao to learning Mandarin Chinese? This relaxed beginner course is your ticket to Chinese—no passport needed! Planning a trip? Exploring your heritage? Just want to try new things? Get started here!

You’ll practice simple, useful phrases and see how language connects to Chinese values and ways of living. Come for the language, stay for the culture—and maybe impress your friends next time you order dumplings.

No tests, no stress, and absolutely no need to write any characters--unless you want to! Just bring your curiosity—and maybe a love of bubble tea.
