Durham Conversational Mandarin Tutoring FAQ
Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken language in the world. Nearly 900 million people speak the language. With the world becoming so much more global, opportunities to do business in many countries where Mandarin is spoken, such as Malaysia, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, and many more, abound. While many business people in these countries speak English, you can set yourself above your competitors by being able to discuss business in your potential partners' native language. Mandarin's not the kind of language you can learn on your own with some workbooks and videos. Varsity Tutors can help connect you with valuable, quality conversational Mandarin tutoring to meet all your language acquisition needs.
There are many good reasons to learn conversational Mandarin, some of which are listed here:
Learn about the oldest culture in the world in the people's own words
Opportunities for positive business relationships
