Survival Mandarin – lunch-time language course for UoN staff and students

Considering studying or working in UNNC or other parts of China but unable to speak any Mandarin?

Visiting a country on the other side of the world without being able to speak the language can be a very daunting experience. Survival Mandarin will enable you to get a taste of Chinese language and culture, helping you to settle in to your new work or study environment.

This lunch-time course is developed by NCI for learners with little or no prior knowledge of the language. It runs every Tuesday 12:30-13:30 from 28 May for five weeks. Not only will you learn useful phrases to meet some of your basic needs, you will also gain practical know-how on living in China.
