Learn Mandarin, Japanese & Korean — Anywhere in India
The Oriental Dialogue started in Pune in 2013. Today, we teach professionals, students, and children in cities from Vizag to Gurgaon — live, online, with the same teachers, the same curriculum, and the same results as our Pune classroom.
Online Classes — Across India
Your city. Our expertise. Live online.
When The Oriental Dialogue launched online classes, we made one decision that has never changed: every session is live, teacher-led, and interactive. Not a recording. Not a video library. A real class, in real time, with a teacher who corrects your pronunciation, answers your questions, and adapts to how you learn.
This is why our online students in Hyderabad, Bengaluru, and Chennai progress at exactly the same pace as students sitting in our Baner classroom in Pune. Below, you will find pages tailored to the industries, opportunities, and professional context of each city — because what a software professional in Hyderabad needs from Korean is genuinely different from what a gems exporter in Jaipur needs from Mandarin.

The same class, wherever you are in India
The question we hear most from city-based learners: "Is online really as good as classroom?" Our answer, after teaching thousands of online students, is an unqualified yes — when the class is live, structured, and taught by an expert.
Live. Every single class.
Every session is taught in real time by a certified teacher. No recordings. No video playlists. Your pronunciation is corrected. Your questions are answered. You are seen as a learner, not a username.
Small batches — always
We cap our online batches the same way we cap classroom sessions — small groups where every student gets attention. Not the 200-person lecture halls that language apps pretend are "classes."
Built for working schedules
Every city has professionals with the same constraint: a full-time job. Our batches start at 8 PM and run on weekends. The curriculum is designed so two sessions a week produce real, measurable progress.
Same material, same teachers
Our in-house Mandarin textbooks, our Japan Foundation-aligned Japanese curriculum, and our TOPIK-mapped Korean course are identical online and offline. Your city is not a second-class experience.
Certificate from a named institute
Every completed level earns you a certificate and a digital LinkedIn badge from The Oriental Dialogue — a 13-year-old Pune institute with a 4.9-star Google reputation. Not a generic "completion badge" from a faceless app.
Industry-relevant from Day 1
If you are in automotive, pharma, IT, or exports, we know your vocabulary. Our courses are designed to make you useful in your professional context — not just conversationally fluent in a vacuum.
