This is one of the few books available for preparing for the Chinese Speaking TSC exam. At the back, example answers are meticulously organized in a palm-sized pocketbook that is easy to carry around and review. The book includes a structured study plan for the TSC exam, making it possible to study independently without the help of an academy. Recommended answers are provided for each exam type, so it seems likely that you can secure at least the basic score simply by changing the words within
For me, a four-week long journey, 'Chinese speaking' was the biggest challenge compared to other grammar books... haha. So, I spent four weeks studying with the somewhat unique and unfamiliar Chinese TSC Master textbook. The vocabulary and example sentences were organized so well that it was possible to cover even truly advanced conversation within a single book. I felt that even without preparing for the exam, simply studying this book would significantly improve my Chinese speaking
It is well organized and easy to read. However, it is quite disappointing that there is no Pinyin starting from section 4. Of course, there are word explanations at the bottom, but the content descriptions are not detailed enough, making it difficult for a Chinese beginner to learn.
The TSC exam was a bit unfamiliar to me. I chose this book because I heard it is a widely recognized alternative to the HSK recently! To be honest, regarding the HSK... I felt like I should have it, but since I'm practically illiterate when it comes to writing, I was debating what to do... and the exam fee isn't exactly cheap, either... haha. So, what I looked into was the TSC! Just looking at the author's background gives you confidence, haha. They even run a Daum Cafe! As expected, you can
Worried about how to study? Don't worry! We offer 20-day or 40-day completion plans tailored to your schedule. The textbook covers every subject likely to appear on the exam from Part 1 to Part 7. While it is great overall, it’s no secret that I personally found Part 7, which many students struggle with, particularly helpful. Make sure to check out the Essential Expressions book whenever you have a spare moment! It compiles useful phrases to memorize as well as expressions that learners often
This book seems better suited for those with a certain level of basic knowledge rather than those preparing for the TSC for the first time. Since most TSC books are comprehensive texts designed for all levels, it is understandable, but this book also seems a bit difficult for a beginner to study on their own.
The book's design and layout are visually appealing and well-organized to make it easy to study.
After deciding to prepare for the TSC and looking into various options, I decided to purchase this book as my basic textbook. Although I have only studied up to Part 3 so far, the answers seem neatly organized. I would recommend this book to first-time TSC test-takers because it is of a suitable thickness and explains the exam format in an easy-to-understand manner. It also appears well-structured to make it easy for beginners and those with some HSK background to get started with the TSC
It is written in an easy-to-read format. However, there are many places where the Pinyin is missing, so I sometimes get confused about the pronunciation while reading.
