Learn Chinese
Chinese
Our students have a variety of reasons for wanting to learn Chinese: to improve employment opportunities, for travel purposes, or purely for the pleasure of learning the beautiful script. Spoken by one fifth of the world’s population, Chinese is fast becoming one of the world’s top international languages. If you choose to learn Chinese on one of our Mandarin Chinese language courses, you’ll be studying one of six official languages of the UN, spoken from Republic of China to Taiwan, Singapore and beyond. Although most speakers of Chinese speak one of several varieties of the language, Mandarin Chinese is the common language of communication in the media, education and administration across Asia.
Our schools
You can choose to learn to speak Chinese at one of our Chinese language schools in Beijing(capital city of China), Shanghai (China’s largest city), or the beautiful coastal resort of Qingdao.
Our courses
We offer a wide range of Chinese language courses, from our popular Standard, Intensive and One-to-One courses, to our special interest courses such as Work Experience, Tai Chi and Chinese Painting. If you have any questions regarding our Chinese language courses, please do contact us.
