The introductory course, which begins in February, will be held over four months, from February 8th-June 16th, 2022, at St. Vincent and the Grenadines Community College (SVGCC) Villa Campus.
The classes are scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
Ms Huang Yu H ui, the facilitator of the language course, said that the Mandarin course would be especially beneficial to persons interested in applying for scholarships to study in Taiwan.
