More sophisticated than flashcards, Chinese BuilderCards takes advantage of proven word-association techniques to help beginning and intermediate-level Chinese learners systematically build up vocabulary. As an added benefit, the set is indexed to dovetail perfectly with seven leading Mandarin Chinese language textbooks.

The Buildercards' structure allows for a wealth of information to be presented, including part of speech, English translation, pinyin transliteration, and even radicals and stroke number. Space on the back of BuilderCards lets students make notes as they construct their own associations for the headword. The accompanying 55-page booklet offers a cogent explanation of the set's rationale and organization, and also includes a pinyin index to all 2,892 words covered by BuilderCards.

From the Publisher

An additional feature of BuilderCards is a simple index on the face of each card that allows students of Integrated Chinese, Hanyu, New Practical Chinese Reader or one of four other major textbook series to group the cards in the order in which they are presented in class. The cards come in a strategic order, however, which may be used successfully apart from textbooks.

Chinese BuilderCards is ideal for first- and second-year learners. The set also provides exceptional preparation for the HSK, SAT II Chinese Language Test, or any other Chinese language proficiency or advanced placement test. Chinese BuilderCards is available in simplified and traditional character editions.
