Integrated Language & Cultural Coaching Program – One-Stop Service

Over the years working with corporate clients and business owners, Jane has noticed a growing need for a deeper understanding of cultural nuances while learning a language. She has always believed that language and culture are inseparable, born out of each other and growing against each other. Therefore, she has created a unique program called "K.N.O.W.” that combines cultural elements with the language learning, providing a deep insight into China and the Chinese as a whole. With the assistance of technology, this convenient and flexible program is offered virtually and seeks to help you:

K – to be knowledgeable about the Chinese language and culture to build relationships
N – to build necessary tools to navigate the foreign business environment
O – to obtain the daily living tips and practices to create a more enjoyable experience
W – to create worry-free business interactions for navigating the culture of the community

This comprehensive approach has been well-received by the business community. In addition, Jane also offers private virtual coaching during and/or after the program is completed. Please reach out to her today for more details and find out how she can help you develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of Chinese language and its culture, and ultimately facilitate your business, professional and personal growth, all while in the comfort of your own home.
