Design notes

The portrait format sets the tones in a 2 x 2 practice cell, like the grid of a character exercise book, with a dashed red cross, each tone on its own small pitch scale and the third tone in cinnabar. The tall page leaves room for six skills in two columns under the name and the course, then the details row, two signatures, a seal and the QR code. It suits a framed print or a classroom ceremony, where a tall page sits better than a wide one.

About

Chinese Course Certificate Template, Four Tones Portrait

Learning Mandarin starts with the ear: before the characters, a beginner learns that one syllable such as ma changes its meaning with its pitch contour. A certificate for a Mandarin course records that work, from a short conversation class to a semester at a university language centre or a tutoring programme ahead of an HSK test. Schools, employers who send staff to China and community language programmes give it at the end of the course, with the hours, the level and the skills practised.

Wording on the template“has completed 60 hours of Mandarin Chinese study, learning to hear and pronounce the four tones, read and write basic characters, use measure words correctly and hold everyday conversations with confidence.”

Post for the recipient to share

I have just completed a 60-hour Mandarin Chinese course. Six months ago I could not hear the difference between mā and mǎ; now I can introduce myself, order food, ask for directions and read a few hundred characters. Xièxie to my teacher and classmates for every patient tone correction. Next stop: HSK 2. #Mandarin #LanguageLearning

Printing

Printing it well

Print at actual size

Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.

Use card, not paper

A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.

Frame it

A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it upright, as designed.

Mind the edges

Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
