The only interactive Mandarin program offering an immersive environment that recreates the best elements of great one-on-one tutoring.

Heading off to China for a business trip? Don't know a word but want to impress? Grab One Minute Mandarin and make the most of your travelling time!
One Minute Mandarin is designed for anyone who hasn't got time to study Mandarin seriously, but wants the essential phrases to get by in the street and in meetings. It is written in pinyin rather than Chinese script to make learning easy, and it covers the basics of grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, with an emphasis on spoken Mandarin.

In the global market, you need to be able to say more than just “hello” in another language. You need to talk about money, trade, labor, and more. Teach Yourself Business Mandarin Chinese will give you all you need to feel confident about doing business in China.
On the three audio CDs, you get the essential Mandarin Chinese you will need for all general transactions as well as some industry-specific jargon. The recordings feature native speakers, so you will hear how the language really sounds and have ample opportunities for practice.

This book is divided into 100 lessons, and every lesson has three units: -Dialogue-, -Vocabulary-, and -Grammar and Sentence Patterns-. The content from -Dialogue- is distilled from daily lives, and is practicability-oriented. The materials range from self-introduction, communication, travel, and Chinese festivals. Important and frequently used words and phrases are fully elaborated in -Vocabulary-. Students not only can understand the stroke order of the listed words, but also the phrases derived from those words. In -Grammar and Sentence Patterns-, we hope the students can agilely apply the glossary they have learned and use Chinese fluently and naturally in daily lives.
