The Language Team offers a range of Chinese and English courses at the diploma, professional diploma, undergraduate, and postgraduate levels. These courses are designed to strengthen students’ language proficiency in professional, academic, and personal communication. We are committed to providing a high quality and coherent language learning experience through discipline specific content that is enriched with performing arts components and supported by strong teacher–student interaction. Our overarching aim is to develop students’ competence and confidence as effective communicators—one of HKAPA’s key graduate attributes.
