"This is an extremely good way to either learn or improve your Chinese. The teachers are very well-qualified, the scheduling is extremely flexible, and the price is unbelievably cheap -- a small fraction for what you would ordinarily have to pay in the US for such high quality one-on-one tutoring. I am recommending it to all of my students."
-- Anthony Zaloom, Adjunct Professor, University of California, Berkeley

Precedence and courtesy
Chinese people often give precedence to one another, especially according to seniority, in social communication. It is advisable for one to decline an offer if one can. Suppoing someone asks one to go first at an entrance, one may insist on him/her taking the precedence. If not, one doesn’t seem to have good manners. It also applies to table behaviour. Guests, especially aged members, are always invited to start a meal first. However Chinese participants will invariably try to be the first to pay the bill.
