First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, with confidence and without hesitation(猶豫). Thirdly, we must do much reading. Finally, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar. There are no shortcuts to success in language learning.

The idea is to see if the Chinese method improves academic performance. The Chinese teachers use their own teaching methods but receive strong resistance from the students.
