Before coming to China, I was really stressed about the visa process. It’s not super clear when you’re trying to figure it out from Europe, and everything online seems complicated or outdated. Luckily, the XMandarin team was super helpful from the beginning. They explained everything clearly, told me exactly what documents I needed, and were really patient when I had questions (which was a lot haha). They helped organize the invitation letter and supported me through the application. Once I arrived in Qingdao, they also helped with the residence registration and local formalities, which can be a bit overwhelming if you’re alone in a new country where they barely speak English. If you’re planning to do an internship or study Chinese and you need visa help, I’d definitely recommend reaching out to them. It’s not a magic solution, but they do make the whole process way smoother.

I had a fantastic experience with the XMandarin Visa Program. The staff made the entire visa process smooth and stress-free, and their support was excellent from start to finish. I also appreciated the cultural activities they organized , which helped me connect more deeply with local life. The Chinese classes were engaging and well-taught, with patient instructors who truly care about your progress. The school has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and Qingdao is a lovely place to stay. I truly recommend this program to anyone looking for an immersive and well-organized experience in China.

Ik wilde graag Chinees leren en tegelijk netjes mijn studentenvisum regelen. Via XMandarin kwam ik hier terecht, en dat was een slimme keuze. Wat ik vooral waardeer, is dat ze je stap voor stap helpen met het visum, dat pakken zij echt voor je op. De lessen zijn fijn, niet te groot, goed tempo, en de docenten zijn geduldig. In mijn groep is er altijd ruimte voor vragen, wat het makkelijker maakt om ook moeilijke dingen te begrijpen. Buiten de lessen om is het ook fijn dat het personeel je helpt met praktische zaken, zoals huisvesting of het leven in Qingdao. De stad zelf is relaxed, met veel leuke plekjes en dichtbij de zee. Als je serieus Chinees wilt leren en tegelijkertijd een visum nodig hebt, zou ik zeker aanraden om via XMandarin te gaan. Het scheelt veel zorgen en je leert echt iets.

I wanted to learn Chinese and at the same time arrange my student visa. I ended up here via XMandarin, and that was a smart choice. What I especially appreciate is that they help you step by step with the visa, they really take care of that for you. The lessons are nice, not too big, good pace, and the teachers are patient. In my group there is always room for questions, which makes it easier to understand difficult things. Outside of the lessons it is also nice that the staff helps you with practical matters, such as housing or life in Qingdao. The city itself is relaxed, with many nice places and close to the sea. If you want to learn Chinese seriously and at the same time need a visa, I would definitely recommend going via XMandarin. It saves a lot of worries and you really learn something.

I came to Qingdao through XMandarin’s student visa program, and overall it’s been a really positive experience. The visa part was actually the main reason I chose them they helped with all the documents and made the process much less stressful than I expected. Everything was handled professionally and on time. The classes are small and pretty flexible. My teacher is nice and explains things clearly, and the pace works well for me. It’s definitely helped me build confidence with speaking, even though Chinese is still hard :( The school has a chill atmosphere, and the staff is friendly. It’s not super formal, which I actually prefer. Also, Qingdao is a great place to live not too crazy, close to the beach, and with a nice mix of locals and internationals

Getting a visa for China can be a headache, but XMandarin made it super easy; they guided me through every step, helped with paperwork, and answered all my questions quickly. The whole process was way smoother than I expected. What I appreciated most was how responsive and friendly the team was; I never felt lost or stressed. If you're planning to study in China and need a visa, I’d definitely recommend going through XMandarin. The classes are also good, really interactive and a fun way to learn Mandarin.

I studied 1-on-1 classes at XMandarin Chengdu for three months, starting at HSK3. I’m amazed by how much my Mandarin has improved in such a short time! The intensive courses were challenging but incredibly rewarding, and the teachers kept me motivated every step of the way. What made my experience even better were the cultural events.

The staff were so supportive, always making sure I felt comfortable and had everything I needed. Chengdu is a great city, and XMandarin makes the most of it. If you’re serious about improving your Mandarin while having an unforgettable experience, this is the place to be!

I had an incredible time studying at XMandarin Chengdu! The professional teachers and cultural events were amazing. The teachers were very engaging, helpful and knowledgeable. I loved exploring Chengdu through the events that were held at XMandarin and within Chengdu. I choose to study in Chengdu because I was very interested in Chengdu’s, vibrant nightlife, delicious food and affordable living. If you want a perfect mix of Mandarin learning and cultural immersion, this is the place to be!

I highly recommend XMandarin to everyone!

My six-month stay in Qingdao with XMandarin was amazing! As someone who is half Taiwanese and speaks Chinese at home, I wanted to improve my skills and focus on reading and writing. I started with group classes, but I also added private lessons to dive deeper into specific areas. I made great progress in a supportive environment.

The visa process was quick and stress-free. The school sent me all the paperwork that was needed to request the visa, which the embassy of my home country accepted without a problem. Really recommend this school!!
