Learning Mandarin Creates Enormous Opportunity in Today’s World
Over 1 billion people speak Mandarin Chinese today. This number is growing and if it continues, speaking Mandarin will offer you an advantage in life. China’s economy is growing at lightning speed. Will your career grow that fast?
According to Leigh Hafrey, a senior lecturer in communications and ethics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management in an article on Bloomberg.com. Learning Mandarin Chinese offers an enormous advantage when doing business in China.
“Speaking the language confers a huge advantage for anyone who wants to do business in a non-English-speaking country,” he said. “It gives you flexibility, knowledge that you need, and personal connections that can make a difference in the speed and effectiveness of your negotiations.”
Adapt or suffer the consequences.
While many of us were offered German, French or Spanish, high school and college students are increasingly studying Mandarin. Some graduate programs strongly encourage their students to study Mandarin. You may be competing with these students for a job or worse for business in China.
Why You Should Learn Mandarin Chinese
- Feel confident that you are enhancing your career.
- Travel understanding that you are prepared.
- Be more competitive when applying for new positions.
- Stand out at your next job interview.
- Understand the culture and history more deeply.
To sum it up: Speaking even basic Mandarin creates enormous opportunities for you.
Studying with us makes learning Mandarin Chinese easy
Sharon’s teaching style is individualized and effective! A friend took Mandarin for a couple of years and felt my pronunciation and vocabulary were better than hers – after about 8 of Sharon’s lessons! Sharon really cares that I am learning! – Peggy in Arvada, Co
Cost Effective Classes
The tuition for our group classes is only $125 per month. You can relax and depend on the tuition not changing in a 5 week month. If you studied at CU or DU this class would cost you more and you would get less attention in a larger class with less support. Please read on and learn more about what makes our classes special.

QingYan is one of the best teachers I have ever had (in any academic discipline). She just seems to know when to push and when to let up. Like any thing in life worth doing you will “hit the wall” at certain times in the process. At CCLC they have the know-how to guide you through these times and keep you on track in reaching your language goals. I highly recommend CCLC’s “personal touch” teaching methods. Take a chance and try the “first lesson free” offer. I did and I have never looked back! – Mark in Denver
