British Council Mandarin Speaking Competition 2021
The British Council is pleased to announce that a digital Mandarin Speaking Competition will take place in a series of online events. The competition provides a great opportunity for secondary school students to practise and improve their Mandarin language skills.
Taking part in the competition:
increases students’ motivation for learning the language
develops vocabulary and improves pronunciation
raises confidence for oral examinations
encourages students to interact with their classmates
inspires students to discover more about Chinese culture.
What is the prize?
In past years, a trip to China was the prize for the winners of this competition. Unfortunately that will not be possible this year, due to Covid-19. But we are working with our partners on an idea for an intriguing alternative prize.
Applications for 2021 are now open.
