Business Chinese Course
Do business in Chinese — starting from zero. A practical, scenario-based course built on the “New Silk Road to Business Chinese” series, taking you from your very first words to confident workplace Mandarin and the Business Chinese Test (BCT).
Credible. Effective. Accessible.
The three things every BFL course is built to be — and how Business Chinese delivers on each.
Credible
Built on the “New Silk Road to Business Chinese” curriculum and aligned to the internationally recognised Business Chinese Test (BCT) from Hanban and Peking University.
Effective
Every lesson is a real work scenario — meetings, phone calls, negotiation, trade — so you practise the exact Chinese you’ll use on the job, level by level.
Accessible
Start from zero, pay one flat semester fee, learn in small classes, and try a class free first. No per-lesson billing and no surprises.
From your first words to the workplace
Business Chinese is BFL School’s practical Mandarin-for-work course in Phnom Penh, built on the “New Silk Road to Business Chinese” series — scenario-based lessons that teach the language of real business.
You start from zero — no Chinese needed. Step by step you build everyday Mandarin together with the vocabulary, etiquette, and communication skills used in meetings, trade, and the office, working steadily toward the Business Chinese Test (BCT).
Your climb to business fluency
Three levels take you from your first characters to confident, BCT-ready business Mandarin.
The four skills, for real business
Business Chinese builds all four language skills — the same ones the BCT measures — around practical workplace situations.
Listening 听力
Follow colleagues, clients, and meetings, and handle the BCT listening section.
Speaking 口语
Introduce your company, take calls, and negotiate politely in Mandarin.
Reading 阅读
Read name cards, emails, notices, and everyday business documents.
Writing 写作

What Business Chinese students say
I started with zero Chinese. Now I can introduce my company and handle basic meetings with our suppliers in Mandarin — it’s already helping at work.
Every lesson is a real work situation, so what I learn in class I use the next day at the office. The path toward the BCT keeps me motivated.
