Amazing

I recently attended classes at XMandarin Language School in Qingdao, and I was really impressed by the overall experience. Teacher Hayley, Jessy and Sharon were incredibly helpful throughout my time at the school. The entire environment at XMandarin is welcoming, and the teachers are always ready to assist, making the learning process smoother and more enjoyable. It’s a fantastic place to learn Mandarin! Would definitely recommend this program and i’m looking forward to coming back in the future since it’s also affordable.

Excellent school

The teacher and staff are wonderful and the school has a good environment. The classes are easy to understand and I really look forward to school. This school is great not only for classes but also for the many events and the opportunity to interact with many different people. Many things are great about this school and this is one of them, but I am very happy with the way they plan our studies according to our situation and make it easy for us to learn. I wholeheartedly recommend this school to many people.

X Mandarin

A really fun school with excellent, qualified instructors, nice, clean facilities, helpful staff.
They put up with me asking tons of questions & demanding all kinds of details before finally signing on to the courses which were given by a variety of teachers that were all very pleasant & fun!
Activities with staff were organized regularly as part of the curriculum & for low cost.
All in a very central & nice part of town, an easy walk from the metro station!

I would return again for more lessons & would definitely recommend.

A nice experience

It has been an incredible experience to come to China to study in XMandarin, at the beginning it can be a bit complicated if you don't speak the language as in my case but the people are very open to help you and that is something I like, also remember to be prepared when you come to study in China, because there are Apps that will be indispensable in your day to day like WeChat and Alipay, there are other Apps like for the metro and bus, but you can download them when you arrive at your destination.
You can also enjoy many activities that they organise and you can meet people from different countries.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
If possible, they should learn a little Chinese, at least enough to order food and/or ask for help.
Pros
  • Getting out of your comfort zone
  • You meet more people from other countries
  • You learn a new language
Cons
  • Chinese is a complicated language to learn
  • 6 hours a week is not enough to learn a language if you want to learn it fast.

10/10

Great school for international chinese students! The teachers and staff are extremely friendly and helpful. They help you with the chinese student visa, booking flights, hotels etc.
The monthly events that the school offers are a lot of fun and are a chance to get to know the diversity of Qingdao.
The atmosphere in the school is very relaxed and comfortable, but the classes are rather small (3-6 people in my experience) which has pros and cons. The age range of the students are very wide so everyone is welcome!!
In general I would really recommend this school, because it engages you in the chinese culture, helps you with everything and offers a great learning experience!!

Great experience at XMandarin!

I had a great experience at XMandarin Language School in Qingdao. From day one, Ray and Fairy were super helpful, explaining everything clearly and always there to answer questions. The school itself has a nice break area where you can relax and chat with other students, and they offer a lot of activities outside of class, which is great for getting to know people and practicing Chinese in real situations. All the teachers and interns are friendly and do an amazing job. After three months, I can really see my progress. I’d highly recommend XMandarin if you want a supportive, fun place to learn Chinese! 🥰

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Don’t be shy to ask questions! Everyone is happy to help you out :) And make sure to enjoy your time 🥰
Pros
  • Lots of outside activities
  • Teachers are really helpful
  • Great location in the middle of Qingdao

XMandarin Experience

XMandarin has been a great experience for me in China. Not only have I levelled up considerately my Chinese in the period of 5 months, but I´ve also made great friends, who also happen to be teachers here. The teachers are very nice, and attentive, and care for their student´s learning progress. I started with group class, of only 4 people, which was very good because the focus was centred well on each of our learning needs. Then I decided I also wanted to combine group with a few private lessons with another teacher, as I wanted to also try and combine these two types of classes, in order to bolster my language acquisition. The location of the school is also very convenient as it is located in the centre of the city, and also it is 15 minutes walk from the seaside. There are many shops and good places to eat nearby, and also the best bars and clubs are about 5-10 minutes walk distance from the school. So living round the area is the best option when deciding to move to Qingdao.

Studying at XMandarin

I would say my experience studying at XMandarin, was great overall.
Before coming to China, I knew the basics of the language and had little to no chance to practice what I had learned. So when I came to XMandarin I hoped that I could get to practice a lot more in order to improve.
What I liked about the school is that they always payed attention to what my goals were regarding the language and helped me follow the right path to achieve them, and also suggested what to do in order to keep improving.
Also, in my experience the teachers that I had the opportunity to meet, were great, they were always very helpful and always tried to make the class more interesting and fun.

So taking this into account, I would definitely recommend the experience and would also consider doing it again.
