Working Mandarin for beginners

Yi Zhou with M. Lynne Gerber (2007)

A course designed to enable business students to develop the basic communication skills required for business trips to China or in a work environment.

The usual everyday basics are covered such as introductions, greetings, travel, booking hotel rooms etc. as well as business specific lessons in setting up and attending meetings, selling products and negotiating deals.

Concludes by encouraging learners to apply the language they've learned and set up a business project using their own area of business of study. The course mainly uses Pinyin and no prior knowledge of Mandarin is required so it is ideal for complete beginners.
