Mandarin Chinese Language Classes & Chinese Business Culture Training

TLI-The Mandarin School prepares North American companies, organizations and individuals to work and do business successfully with China through its Mandarin Chinese language classes, China intelligence training and SME business strategy consulting.  TLI-The Mandarin School is located in downtown Toronto, and serves clients across North America and Europe.

China-North America Business Intelligence and Protocol/Etiquette
Research has shown that the biggest obstacles to successful business in China are the barriers and misunderstandings caused by culture gaps.  Most companies simply don't know what they don't know when doing business in or with China. The result?  Unexpected delays, unforeseen challenges and increased business risks.  TLI-The Mandarin School prepares organziations large and small to be successful through our expert knowledge of  the cultural influences on business practices and relationships. (
Les formations du TLI–The Mandarin School sont offertes en anglais et en français). 

For Chinese young professionals and executives, the situation is equally as challenging.  View our intercultural workplace preparation courses for Chinese young professionals and executives working in Canada or the United States.

Mandarin Chinese Language Courses
Our group Mandarin classes focus on effective communication in real life situations - and our very small group class sizes and experienced Mandarin teachers ensure practical results in a short period of time.

TLI was founded in 1956 and is recognized as a leader in Mandarin Chinese language instruction, with dozens of branches across the world, including Mainland China, Taiwan, Japan.  TLI has pioneered a distinctive teaching methodology and learning materials to meet the unique needs of adult learners.
