I booked a short course of one to one business Chinese classes at Aushi School which were arranged to suit my schedule into 2 blocks of three hours each. My teacher, Ning, spoke some English and helped me to choose a suitable textbook from their wide range. The classes were very intense involving situation role-play and forced me to think creatively in Chinese which I found challenging at my low intermediate level. In the first class I learnt around 16 versatile new words, role played introducing colleagues/attending a trade show/selling a computer and created my own Chinese name card. Ning corrected my poor pronunciation often and really whipped my tones into shape. She spoke entirely in Chinese, only translating when I was totally stuck.

All in all a friendly and positive introduction to studying Chinese for business. They cater to all different levels and offer a variety of other classes in groups and privately. 60 yuan per hour for my one to one business class and the price varies for larger classes and different levels. The school also runs Chinese classes at Intel and Accenture, among other companies. I think they also offer general Chinese classes, for people who want to study Chinese for daily life. Definitely worth trying.
