Chinese Conversation Workshops

This Fall, the Confucius Institute, with the assistance of the China Center, offered its first conversational Chinese workshop specially designed for faculty and staff.

The free weekly workshops focused on subjects such as correct pronunciation of Chinese names, Chinese greetings, exchanging gifts, and advising students in Chinese. Faculty and staff participating in the workshops learned basic Chinese phrases and pronunciation to help them better communicate and connect with Stony Brook's Chinese international student population, while also learning about Chinese culture.

The Confucius Institute Chinese Conversation Classes will continue during the Spring semester. More detailed information can be found on the Confucius Institute website.
