Mandarin is one of the most spoken languages in the world. As China continues to grow economically, the opportunities you could get for understanding Mandarin and the benefits that come from it will also continue to grow.

China is a wonderful place, it has amazing food, 2,000 years of culture and history, beautiful scenic areas, a booming technology and financial hub and was my home for four years after I graduated from the University of Oregon. We will learn how to read, write and listen in Mandarin, gaining knowledge about Chinese culture and practicing how to speak and hold a conversation with other Mandarin speakers!
