In just 75 minutes you can learn enough Mandarin Chinese to get by on your holiday. Elisabeth Smith has used her wide teaching experience to write a fun audio course that teaches you enough to communicate all your basic needs. The course comes on one 75-minute CD and teaches only the essential words and phrases, which are extended by the use of body language. The accompanying booklet lists the words and phrases taught on the recording - a written record of what has been learned. The action takes place during a flight from London to China. Following a challenge from the passenger in the next seat to her, Elisabeth Smith agrees to teach him enough Mandarin Chinese to be able to get around on his holiday.
