Where ya headed?

So, you??ve used our lessons to land the big contract (we??d like a cut), and all you have to do is meet at their office. Who knew your western GPS wouldn??t work in Asia. What are you going to do now, G.G. Ross? Can we suggest finding an address lesson?

Sightseeing

People ask you how China was and you describe the hotel? I believe that deserves a ???tsk???. Don??t let a few easy phrases stand in between yourself and that darling picture of you flying a kite in Tiananmen Square.

Who??s That Girl?

Hard to be the smooth-talker you fancy yourself if you can??t even tell her she??s a bit of alright! We??ll help your ???Mack 101??? here with a conversation about a beautiful woman.

All in the Family

Chances are that while you??re pulling out your wallet to buy that ???I Climbed The Great Wall??? t-shirt, a few photo??s of the family will show themselves. So we??ll make sure you can tell them you have a sister??unless that traditional tiara is for you??

Meet Market

Hard to put all of these lessons to work if you don??t know what time the meeting starts, isn??t it? We??ll help you ask the time and arrange social meetings. Which makes us a Timex Social Club??of sorts.

The 9-to-5

Chances are you didn??t iron that suit in the hostel, so you must be here on business, no? What do you do? Plus, don??t miss Jenny accusing Ken of being a ???gong zuo kuang?????he had it coming.

Face Off

You??ve had the Beijing Duck not to mention an ill-advised attempt at eating ???chao mian??? with chopsticks, and now it??s time to pay. Who gets the bill? The bigger man, that??s who. Save face by expensing it out. We??ll even throw in a bonus ???Ou you???!!! (Most versatile word in the Mandarin language)

Tones Part II

Don??t you take that tone with me??wait, please do. Yes, the tones in Chinese are tricky, yes, you??re still not completely clear on them and yes, it??s Ken and Jenny to the rescue. You don??t realize how important this lesson is until you accidentally tell the taxi driver that you want to ???go to the bedroom?????saucy, indeed.

I Know You

Before the Temptations harmonized about hearing things through Sonoma County fruits, Chinese Whispers were how word got around??and it gets around quick when a single and attractive American is in town (drawing from personal experiences here, of course). We??ll show you how to confirm these queries (even if you??re not anything to write home about).

I Gotta Go, Babe

You??ve spent an hour using Lessons 01-32 to express yourself to them, all the while amusing the entire restaurant with your dual-fisted approach to chopsticks (there??s only so much we can teach you), but you have to go. Now, you can ignore this lesson and risk departing rudely, or you can partake??the choice is yours.

Family Ties

Your mother! Now, before you throw that iPod at us, we??re actually going to teach you the family basics. Along with her, we??ll break down the old man, brothers and sisters (young and old). For an additional $100, we??ll teach you ???I??m forever their favorite??? and ???You were an??oops?????.

Professional Life

So a lawyer and a journalist walk into a bar??seriously. In this lesson, we??ll help you ask and answer the ???what do you do???? query. And should you actually be a lawyer, we??ll also help you apologize profusely.

The Big Guy

Jenny demanded that we teach you how to say that you enjoy your work, but not your boss-due to his temper. While we??re busy looking further into this matter, we??ll go ahead and teach you how to ???moan about the man???.

Married?? With Xiao Hai

Dandy, aren??t we? You know with that custom made suit you get done here, you??re bound to get some compliments. But your spouse did ask us to teach you how to confess be being spoken for??avec kids.
