It uses authentic language forms and focuses on ensuring that the message is communicated rather than on the structure of the language. Through interactions, students will learn a variety of basic conversational words, phrases, and short sentences. They will learn to write simple characters.
Students will need access to a device and the Internet for the remote learning program. A student cannot take the same language twice. A student can enrol in a second language without cost.
