Introduction

I played on the Sith Lord difficulty so the technique may vary on other settings.

The Corridor

You'll start out facing off again Vader in a corridor section. This part is fairly short and you quickly move on by force pushing or using the cannonball (RT+B on Xbox360) and then slashing away at him while he's stunned and down.

Center Platform

After a brief cut-scene you follow Vader into a room with a force-field floor (that you will take damage from if you stand on it) with an "island" platform in the center. Vader will move to the center platform. Stay right where you are and go into a block stance and wait for him to either force grab a piece of debris or throw his saber at you. It he throws the saber you are ready to block, if he grabs an item quickly either hit him with a force push, lightning or toss your saber at him. Note that the saber throw is slower than the others so if you react late you may not have time to perform it before Vader tosses the piece of junk at you. Keep doing this for as long as he continues to either try to toss items or his saber at you. 
Alternatively you can grab one of the items he tries to toss at you in between his attempts and toss it back at him, and then follow up with three saber tosses while he is stunned. This requires a little more skill and\or luck but will dwindle down his health faster. 

When you've brought his health down sufficiently Vader will force push the platforms on the left, right and center down into the force field so now you need to jump-dash over to the opposite side (from where you start)..

Far Side

After taunting you Vader will jump over to the remaining platform on the far side of the room where you should be now as well. Make sure to stay close to him or he will force-blast you onto the floor-forcefield (floorcefield? Sorry...) or into the wall. Face him and prepare to block when he attacks with either a one, two or three hit combo. Then immediatly retaliate with a series of slashes, you can use combos such as the saber+lightning ones fairly effectively if you're fast enough (Sith Strike, Sith Slash and Sith Saber Smash), otherwise just stick with saber slashes. Repeat this process until the finishing QTE start.

Good Luck!
