Chinese 1 to 1 General

These Chinese lessons are more general in nature and are targeted at students with a whole range of different needs. While all beginners level students can expect to cover Survival Chinese - required for short visits to a country where English may not be spoken and/or the intention is to make good contacts with the local population, students then generally progress in different directions depending on their needs. Typical students include those buying property overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people about to set off on that long-awaited world trip, Chinese culture enthusiasts and those who are keen to pass a particular Chinese examination.

These Chinese lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Chinese to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette; and once you have become more proficient then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with import/export, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations, and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even on our most rudimentary beginners lesson, students can expect to finish the lesson with decent telephone and e-mail Chinese, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country.

Chinese Group Lessons

2 or more people can benefit studying Chinese together as these Chinese lessons are also offered to groups (Two-to-One Chinese Lesson or Small Group In-Company Chinese Lesson). Every student must have the same degree of knowledge of the language, the same business or language needs and the ability to study at the same time and place as everybody else. The booking has to be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn do not advocate group sessions of more than 6-8 people, though Taster Chinese Lessons can be experienced by up to 12 people.

Chinese Facts

Non-Mandarin dialects are not allowed in Singaporean media, as part of a national "Speak Mandarin" campaign, encouraging people to learn and use the language

Since it is frequently the only common tongue between Chinese people of different regions, Mandarin is often used for logistical reasons and convenience

Chinese is very reliant on the pitch and tone of the speaker - if a word is spoken with the wrong stress, it can have a very different meaning

Anchorage

With over 250,000 residents, Anchorage is home to almost half of the entire population of Alaska. One of the most beautiful cities in the world, there are over 200 recognized mountains and 30 lakes within a 50 miles radius of Anchorage. And in terms of sheer size, it is hard to beat as it is as big as the entire state of Delaware. Home to Alaskan natives, a thriving Hispanic community and even a number of individuals from Korea and Japan, Anchorage is a small-scale 'Tower of Babel' set in an icy climate to the northwest of the continental United States. With commerce that spans everywhere from Russia to the Pacific Rim, and a unique mixture of different nationalities, those who are tough enough to live in Anchorage can benefit greatly from learning a foreign language. Need more proof? Consider this: 94 different languages are spoken in the Anchorage School District.
