Chinese Lessons in Houston

Your colleagues and yourself can be trained by our native-speaking fully-qualified Chinese tutors at a time and location to suit you. Classes can take place any day, even weekends, and can happen in the morning, afternoon or evening. If the case may be that your home or office is not convenient, there is always the option to take your classes at the office of your teacher. Study books for the lesson are provided.

Chinese 1 to 1 General

This set of Chinese tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Chinese. Even though all novice students will cover survival Chinese: enough Chinese to make a visit to the country or make good contacts with the locals, but what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefitted from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Chinese culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Chinese.

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

Writing in Chinese is a mystery for the uninitiated - you simply have to learn each symbol's meaning and pronunciation - there are no clues from how each symbol looks

Chinese has changed a lot over the years - the 20th century saw the disappearance of a lot of Imperial Chinese, which included many words used for politeness and to indicate social status

Houston

A diverse place with around 90 languages spoken within city limits, Houston has one of the youngest populations in Texas and the USA as a whole. With over 2 million people living in a 600 square mile area, the city is a melting pot of culture, heritage, and language. Houston has attracted tens of thousands of Asian immigrants, especially from Vietnam and China - in fact, the city has not one, but two Chinatowns! This gives the city an incredible depth for learning (and practicing) a foreign language, especially if you want to learn something more 'exotic' than the norm.
