I work in Hong Kong. Therefore, it will be my advantage if I can understand Mandarin. Shanghai is interesting and vibrant city. I believe that I can see and learn not only the language, but also the culture. Jiao Tong University has a good reputation, both academics and activities. Also the campus locates in an interesting area of Shanghai. Moreover, concerning my job, I can manage my schedule to study in September and I cannot skip working for too long. From these all reasons make the intensive course (4 weeks) from Jiao Tong University fits perfectly for me.
