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.

Arlington

Nestled in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas, Arlington is one of the most affluent areas in the Lone Star State. A unique combination of enterprise and entertainment from General Motors to the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball has helped this once sleepy town transform into the 50th largest city in the United States, and the biggest city without any form of public transportation. Adding to the prestige and economy of Arlington in 2009 will be the NFL's Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are the world's most recognizable sports team and they have chosen Arlington as the home of their new 1.1 billion dollar stadium. The Hispanic community in Arlington makes up 20% of the population, so learning Spanish is an essential part of doing business there. And thinking in terms of the future, 6% (and growing) of the residents of Arlington are of Asian descent and speak Japanese, Mandarin or Korean making each a language worth knowing in this city of almost 350,000 people.
