Ability to speak Mandarin useful when getting a job, says teacher


Kaleymani says many, including working adults, are interested in taking Mandarin classes for career advancement.

JOHOR BARU: Teacher M. Kaleymani studied in a Tamil school but always felt that she needed to pick up Mandarin, as she saw the importance of the language, especially in getting a job.

The 35-year-old then decided to learn the language on her own and is now advocating the importance of learning Mandarin to students and working adults.

“I know of people with degrees and master but when they go looking for a job in Singapore or in sales, they do not get it because they do not know Mandarin.
