Any other foreign spouses out there taking these?
Total cost NT$500, which you get back if you complete the course.
I'm doing an intermediate course, which has a fair emphasis on writing, something I'm generally too lazy to work on myself
You can also study Taiwanese and Chinese cooking.
But the best part is the classmates....

Well, I'm in Taidong, and that's pretty boony.
These are the courses were started for the benefit of the brides from Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam etc.; when my 60-year-old French buddy rolled up and demanded to register they were quite shocked, but there's nothing in the requirements that say you have to be female or from a "less-advanced" country.
Try asking at your local county/city hall or social centre.

Anyone got the info?
Please share.
I'm starting to seriously consider it, if I can do it at lunchtimes.
Do they really teach you cooking and stuff too?

I have news. Good news from Notting Hill. The consignment of white gold for Mr Anderson has arrived.

I mentioned this to my wife. She thought I was going crazy, then she checked it out. I may be starting the beginners class when they start the cycle again in Jan/Feb here in Tainan. They do them at night here.
Couldn't hurt.

So what agency is running these? Who should I call. MOFA? MOE?

I am not married, can I still join course (e.g. Taiwanese) for a bit of extra money? Or without getting the 500 back at completion of course?
I am looking for a Taiwanese course in Taichung and the only suggestion I got so far at Forumosa was Maryknoll, which sounds like learning Taiwanese with a bunch of missionary boys to me.
Where do people like Philippine care takers etc. learn Taiwanese?
