One-to-one General/Business

Chinese Course in Cork

Whether you want Chinese lessons to help you in your general day-to-day life or for business needs, our made-to-order language courses can help you improve quickly and confidently.

A General course in Chinese will grant you 'Survival Chinese' - enough under your belt to furnish you with a working knowledge for the purpose of visiting the country, allowing you to introduce yourself and engage in conversation with native speakers. Business courses are aimed at those wishing to work in the target language - so a working knowledge of etiquette in Chinese business, as well as developing proficient reading and writing skills.


Our Chinese courses would not be fixed to a specific curriculum, however. You know the specifics of what you will need from your new language, and all you need do is tell your teacher. Perhaps if you are taking a Business course, you may want to focus more on Chinese telephone or email skills, or a specific vocabulary for your line of work. Equally, a General course will cover the fundamentals, but further focus in any particular area can easily be arranged with your teacher.


We have a wide range of Business course clients for a variety of needs; including people who are off to work for a foreign administration, people working in a corporation with overseas headquarters, and import/export specialists. General courses are not simply for those who need to reach a certain level of Chinese for an exam - they are perfect for those wishing to pack up and move abroad, those marrying a Chinese national, as well as those travelling to the country for any other reason.

Info about Cork


The city of Cork and its surrounding area is home to around 300,000 people, and is the second largest city in the Republic of Ireland. Often seen as something of a 'rebel' county, native Cork residents have their own distinctive accent, dialect and vocabulary, tending to be higher in pitch than most Irish accents; and often compared with Liverpudlian accents due to the long-standing rate of immigration to Liverpool from Cork.

Home of the Blarney Stone, Cork is a terrific place to pick up a new language, having long stood as a centre for immigration in the region - around 20% of the city's population was born outside Ireland. This cultural diversity means more native speakers of other languages in the region, giving plenty of reasons to study a new tongue.
