Introduction to the Program

With the exponential growth of the Chinese economy and the number of Chinese speakers, estimated at more than 1.1 billion people, the Chinese language has become a very interesting option for the future. At B1 level, which already implies intermediate fluency in many areas, you can start to improve your employability in many companies that have close business ties with China. This Language Course contains the keys and linguistic skills to achieve this level of proficiency with the support of the best native teachers in the academic world.

With a B1 level in Chinese you will begin to demonstrate your interest in the language, improving your employability in the most powerful industries" 

It is undeniable that China is currently the world's strongest power. Its economy continues to expand and companies such as Tencent, TikTok and Lenovo are beginning to rival their American counterparts in size, relevance and turnover. This makes learning Chinese one of the best paths to professional growth and a safe bet for the future, as many companies are looking for quality links in the giant Asian country or workers trained to work in environments where Chinese is used as a common language. This TECH Language Course, based on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, prepares the student for Level B1 of the language, which already implies an intermediate level of knowledge.

Once you have overcome the initial language barrier, you will see how you will become more confident and firm in your command of Chinese.
You will acquire a sufficient linguistic base to continue developing your skills in one of the most important languages in the business world.

It is proven that learning languages increases your Intelligence. Learning a foreign language strengthens the brain's neural networks”

"I was always attracted to adding a language to my resume other than English, and I know I didn't make a mistake in choosing Chinese. Thanks to my B1 level I was able to enjoy a cultural exchange opportunity in Beijing and the experience was wonderful. I recommend it to everyone, especially the TECH Language Course because the professors' attention was excellent"

"At first, learning Chinese was complicated. The extensive vocabulary and the very different form of communication makes it difficult to learn the language, but once you get the rhythm, it is much easier to move up to a higher level and perfect it more and more. Thanks to TECH I have been able to do it online without having to go to an academy, because they were far away from where I live"
