Private 1-on-1 Chinese Language Programs

Global village is a great school with a very good team of professional teachers. I had a great time learning Chinese with my teacher: as a language teacher myself, I can tell she's very talented. I also occasionally had class with other teachers who were also very skilled and playful. I'm a person who likes to have fun and enjoy an open hearted conversation, and I feel like that was always the case here: the teachers were immediately quite friendly and willing to share personal thoughts about many topics, there's also a good sense of community and you easily mix up with other students and teachers during the group activities.

I started studying HSK5 level at Global Village School taking 1-to-1 classes morning and afternoon 3 days a week. The quality of the teaching is very high, with both my teachers also being very adaptable to both my level and my learning goals. The school is very helpful in organising a lesson plan with you that is tailored to your objectives. For example, I wanted to improve my speaking as well as study HSK content, so they suggested that I divide my classes between higher-level speaking and the HSK curriculum. This worked very well for me. The school have also been gracious in giving occasional extra classes as a reward for completing a certain number of class hours. They also offer mock HSK tests whether you are preparing for a real test or just curious about your level. At the competitive prices they offer this school is certainly the best option in the area for those who are looking to make quick progress with learning Mandarin. The staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating, and the teachers are first rate.

I had an intensive language program at the Global Village School for 4 weeks to improve my Chinese. Although my language skills was difficult to grade as an heritage student (speaking and listening advanced, reading and writing low to intermediate), the staff was very helpful to find classes that suit me best. All the teachers (several small groups, 1 to 1) were excellent. Due to the small size of the groups (3-6 people) the lessons were very interactive. I asked them a lot of questions and they were very comitted to answer all of them. I met a lot of good people (also good for sozializing) and had a good time. As they offer online courses, you could also continue classes when you‘re back at home or travelling to other places. At least, I intend to do that.

I’ve been attending Chinese classes at Global Village School for a few months, and I’ve had a fantastic experience. As a beginner, I was nervous about learning a new language, but the teachers have been incredibly patient and supportive. They create a welcoming environment that makes learning enjoyable and not overwhelming.

The classes are well-structured, focusing on both speaking and listening skills, which has really helped me gain confidence in using the language. The teachers are approachable and take the time to explain difficult concepts, especially pronunciation and tones, which can be tricky. The small class sizes ensure personalised attention, and the learning materials are engaging and easy to follow.

Overall, I highly recommend Global Village School to anyone interested in learning Chinese. The combination of great teachers, flexible scheduling, and supportive atmosphere has made this a rewarding learning experience.

My experience at this school has been fulfilling. l had learned Chinese before and l always knew that l needed to improve my Chinese speaking skills and being at this school provided me with this opportunity. The teachers and the staff there are always available to help you with any problems you may face during the course of your learning. The classes are really interactive providing an opportunity to put into practice what you have learned. One important thing is also that they provide free tea and coffee 😊

I started this program because I moved to China for work and I always struggle with my speaking ability. I already studied Chinese by myself for a long time, but lack of speaking. The teacher is really helpful in increasing my speaking ability, I just started this course, one on one, a few weeks ago and I can already see an increasement!! My teacher combines book teaching with natural conversations, we always include conversations about my culture or experiences or daily things, which really help me to speak more freely!

From the moment I stepped into the school, I knew that this was going to be a unique and enriching journey. The first thing that struck me was the modern and well-maintained facilities. The classrooms are spacious and well-equipped. The class is engaging and interactive. Also, the school has a comfortable lounge area where students can relax, socialize, and practice speaking with peers. The teachers are highly qualified, experienced, and passionate about language education. They are always really well-prepared for the class. On my one on one class, I receive personalized attention and feedback, which is crucial for me. The teacher is always available to answer questions and provide additional support outside of class hours. The curriculum is well-structured and comprehensive. It covers all aspects of language learning, including reading, writing, listening, and speaking. The courses are designed to meet the needs of students at different proficiency levels, from beginners to advanced learners. Also, the school constantly holds many events to help us know and learn more Chinese culture and its history. So, I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to improve their language skills in a supportive and dynamic environment. This school really has added more meaning to my language learning journey in China!

The school is providing access to all kind of materials and full flexibility in terms of schedule and class format (either at school or online lesson).

Now that I am in a more advanced level, I also value the professor’s team involvement on making the class more enjoyable and entertaining, at the same time keeping a good pace in the learning process.

When I came last year I also had the opportunity to assist to their group lessons, which I also found very interesting and where I could improve my speaking skills with other students.
