This four-volume series is a basic course for students of Chinese. Ni Hao introduces Chinese language and culture and builds communication skills in both spoken and written Chinese.
The Ni Hao textbooks feature a wide range of situational settings and vocabulary to encourage Chinese practice in everyday activities. Each lesson presents conversations as illustrated scripts that facilitate role-playing and help students put their communicative skills into action. Engaging additional sections clearly explain new vocabulary and language usage, character stroke order, and Chinese culture. Songs, rhymes, tongue twisters, cartoons, stories, and interesting features of Chinese characters tie it all together and make learning fun.
Each Ni Hao textbook includes a FREE download of the Ni Hao Language Lab Textbook Edition (Lab TE). The software includes recordings of the pronunciation practice, dialogues and readings, vocabulary, and common phrases sections from each lesson in the textbook. Students can also record their own voice to compare pronunciation.
The Ni Hao series includes textbooks, workbooks, and teacher's handbooks as well as great supplements like audio CDs and games software.
