Study Chinese
Hi there,
I am thinking of study Chinese for my job requires me work more and more with Chinese people. But there are no many Chinese language programs are good to my criteria.
I hope it can be very practical, interesting and fun. What's important to me is flexibility. It hope this program can be fitted into my schedule.
thank you guys..

Thank you.
I know the software, not so much of the online courses.
How is it? free?
How's the interactivity?

Re: Study Chinese
Learning Chinese is not so easy. It’s better to learn basic Chinese before going to study Chinese in China. But if you’ve settled your mind to study abroad in China then Minds Abroad could be the best option for you. As per my knowledge is concern it’s the most well known Chinese language school in Kunming, China.

You are going to work in China soon and you want to learn some chinese before or are you looking for a place in China to learn chinese?

Re: Study Chinese
If you are going to move to China there should be no problem as most of the unis there offer courses for foreigners.
A good option to get some very basic language is doing a 3-6 months course in school (full time).
There are also books for foreignes learning the language and getting private tutoring is also very easy and cheap (or free as a language exchange).
You can check this out:

Be warned: it is not a language that you can learn in a couple months, takes a few years.
