FREE MANDARIN CLASS ANNOUNCEMENT
from
Ramon Mandarin Services
(http://www.negia.net/~ramon/classes.html)
==========================================================================
Ramon Mandarin Services is a non-profit organization which promotes the
learning and using of the standard Chinese (Mandarin) language. We are
developing a series of classes which will be eventually offered
FREE OF CHARGE to anyone who is interested.
The first of this series, Gateway to Chinese, is an introductory course
which includes 20 lessons covering basic conversations for some daily
situations. The class material is of multimedia design and will have audio
clips in addition to written information. This interactive mechanism will
ensure that first-time learners will easily get on to the right tracks. And
best of all, this course is FREE of charge. Anyone with a direct Internet
connection (capable of accessing WWW or FTP) may participate in the class.
For those who do not, please send a message to ra...@negia.net. We will
see if other arrangement can be worked out.
Participation in the classes offered by RMS is totally voluntary and may
be canceled at any time. However, due to the limited resource available,
you do have to preregister with us in order for the whole course to be
delivered in a well organized manner. To preregister, point your WWW browser
to the URL given in the header of this notice.
You may also preregister by email. Please include the following information
about yourself and the computer you are using. All items are required.
- Full name (first, middle, last)
- Mailing address
- E-Mail address (Be sure to get it right!)
- Your native language
- Operating system you are using (Windows 95, Windows 3.x, MacOS)
- Is your computer sound enabled?
- Any Chinese Character system installed in your computer?
- Any prior experience of Mandarin learning?
Preregistration will include you in our regular mailing list so that we
can keep you informed of the time when the class actually begins as well as
other latest development at RMS.
Thank you for your interest and have a successful, challenging 1996!
