To uncover back my heritage route, I decided to learn Chinese, or rather continue my lessons on the long-lost language (to me). There are a couple of options for learning Chinese for professionals in Singapore. My preference and feedbacks:
NUS Extension, the arm for continuous education organized by NUS (National University of Singapore). The class is generally well attended by foreign professionals, taught by native speaker, and have a good curriculum and class progression from beginners. Generally each module is 4-5 months long, twice a week at weekday nights.
(now this has program has been discontinued).
Some online courses or tuition classes. You can try searching here for language courses.
I also found some interesting courses, organized in China/Beijing.
- Language courses organized by Beijing Cultural and Learning Centre: 2weeks summer class every day 8am-12pm. http://school.cucas.edu.cn/course/detail?sid=17&courseid=41422.
