Any banking lessons for Teller to work in a Chinese Bank

[onetruelove]

I am working as a Teller in a Chinese Bank, but so sad my Chinese is bad, and they use Chinese more than English in this bank. I want to find some resources which have bank lessons for Tellers in Chinese or any book. Just need the conversation between Teller and the customers.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Just need the conversation between Teller and the customers.

That's a very specific topic. I wouldn't be surprised if there were such resources, but, having seen some stuff aimed at similar narrow areas, I would be surprised if you manage to find anything good.

I think a lot of the teller-customer conversations, grammar-wise, are quite similar to buying stuff in a shop. So if you use a standard course (eg pimsleur), to work on your grammar & pronounciation, & more general vocab, you'd probably just have to look up a few banking terms to be able to apply that at work...

I'm not aware of anything specific for learners of Chinese, although phrasebooks might have some stuff about changing / wiring money I guess.

There is some material designed for Chinese learners of English which might be useful, but you'll need to figure out the pinyin yourself. here's a list of topics, this one looks useful. Might also be worth having a search on Chinesepod.com.

Where are you working?

How did you get the job? Were you hired to work with foreign customers? If you are working Chinese non-English speaking customers. You will have to learn conversational Chinese in addition to banking terms, of which there aren't too many for a teller to have to know.

I'm working at The First Commercial Bank, branch in Ho Chi Minh city, Viet Nam. Thank you very much for your helps. I think i'll have to work with all kinds of customers. But usually there are chinese foreigners.

I realize this is an old thread, but I would think one could find a language exchange partner to help with all the necessary phrases to work as a teller in a bank.
