    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master Chinese in State College, PA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with mobile applications, you have 4 primary opportunities for learning Chinese interactively in State College, PA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are better priced.) Your 2nd possibility can be local for-profit language academies that charge less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. 4th and last, you can opt for a private Chinese tutor in State College, PA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local State College, PA and online Chinese tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive to learn Chinese and what are the ballpark lesson costs for Chinese tutors?

    For university and college courses you can estimate Chinese course cost by dividing annual tuition by 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the overall charge for 45-48 instruction hours each semester. Language academies and individual Chinese tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the less pricey Chinese tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 13 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, availability and popularity. Average reviews for Chinese lessons on Preply is 4.95 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What are the requirements for Chinese language skill level to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared pass a few pre-requisites. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and tests, so research those in advance. With personal Chinese tutors you can find out in advance for whom the tutor is effective with and which other add-ons they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is Chinese so challenging and are there ways to learn it more effectively?

    One-size-fits-all language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Chinese. Realistically, you can gain basic Chinese fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback several hours a week you will be able to understand everyday expressions, have simple conversations, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and enjoyable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Chinese. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Chinese tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.

    🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Chinese?

    Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Chinese will demand at least 600 hours of study. The length of time can differ quite a bit depending on your existing level of Chinese or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch television, write using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in Chinese out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Chinese classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the Chinese coach?

    In language centers, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of verified Chinese tutors with detailed profiles and true reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges typically schedule classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools as a rule have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
