We Love Singing Chinese Songs!
Posted by Yajuan ZhangSinging is such an important part for students to open up and practice speaking a different language right away. In singing, all the words of a different language have a rhythm and all the challenging sentences are easier to express with the music. Therefore, to boost student self-confidence and lower their learning anxiety, in our Mandarin class students are singing different songs from the very beginning of the semester. Here, in the video clip, with the single hand gesture for numbers from one to ten and the lively singing of the song, students are counting the native American little friends. From the student facial expression and their singing, you immediately get the gist that learning Chinese with songs is such a seamless practice for the opening of the communication and the dip of a taste for a different culture.
