Highly Recommend LTL Singapore

LTL Singapore was an amazing place to improve my Chinese. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They truly want students to succeed and create an environment accommodating to learners of all levels. I loved all of the immersive language activities, especially cooking dumplings and playing Mahjong. The hardest part about learning Chinese in Singapore is that everyone in the country speaks English, but studying at LTL will make you forget that by engaging you in plenty of exciting and motivating activities. I highly recommend this program!

Four weeks of intense Mandarin training

Even though I booked my training on very short notice LTL was possible to accomodate me quite alright!

Pickup from the airport, homestay, school and teachers where all reasonably troublefree, even though it is strongly recommended to have a really good understanding of English, as the books and teachers will have to expected you to understand English explanations!

LTL offers very friendly an helpful assistance, providing at least two social activities additional to multiple shared lunches per week.

Highly recommended, and a lot of fun - even though learning can become quite intense and taxing!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
If I would change it, I would make sure to book earlier so I can get a homestay location closer to the school itself, so more time remains to study in the evenings.

Critical Language Scholarship with LTL Singapore

My time with LTL Chinese Singapore was nothing short of magical. Staff were friendly and supportive, and although our time together was short, it felt like a family with them. They listened to what our challenges with Chinese were and helped curate the program specifically to those needs. I am grateful for the experience and would definitely learn with them again! Overall, the program helped me practice my Chinese in a real world setting with helpful teachers and buddies to provide a stress free environment

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Be ready to move, you will be walking through Singapore and you need to be prepared for a big city with loads of people
Pros
  • Friendly staff
  • Bonding activities with my classmates

5 day private course

My sister and I didn’t book a course and came in the first day we wanted a lesson since we didn’t plan our trip much in advance. However, the staff helped us both and succeeded getting us each a private teacher.

The teachers were really good and we learned a lot. I started as a complete beginner and my lessons contained of a lot of new words combined with my teacher asking questions in Vietnamese and helping me answer them in Vietnamese. When I didn’t understand she wrote them up and translated the words I didn’t understand.

The first day we had lunch with the team and two other students which was really nice.

The course is definetly worth it if you want to improve your Vietnamese fast and is okay with the price. We enjoyed our week a lot.

Amazing experience

I only have good words for LTL Taipei. Riona and Ailin are very helpful and they welcome every new student. I like the activities they organize and of course the Chinese classes, I want to mention the teacher Sissi who has been my best teacher so far. An amazing experience I recommend to everyone who wants to live in Taipei for a while and also learn Chinese. If you have any problem they help you a lot and they care about you and you don’t feel that lonely abroad. Thanks again, Riona for the time you spend with the students and how much you really care!

What was your funniest moment?
Playing Mahjong and the classes with Sissi
Pros
  • They help you all the time a
  • Funny activities

Had so much fun at LTL Saigon

I studied at LTL Saigon and stayed at the homestay for 5 weeks in early 2025. I originally was only going to do 3 weeks but it was so much fun I kept extending. Everyone at LTL was so welcoming and through the suggestions from my teacher and other LTL staff I was introduced to opportunities in Saigon I wouldn't have known about otherwise. The location of the school was good and I enjoyed the short walk to school every morning from the homestay. I would definitely recommend LTL Saigon to anyone looking learn/improve their Vietnamese.

Interesting experience in LTL Saigon

I stayed in Saigon for two weeks and learned Vietnamese to immerse myself in the culture here. I was surprised by how friendly everyone was to me, my teacher, the staff, and the host family in my homestay. I got to try many new things, including good food and new experiences, also on some short trips with my teacher. The classes are small and super interactive, which makes it easy to actually speak Vietnamese instead of just memorizing grammar. My teacher is patient, funny, and always finds creative ways to explain the tricky pronunciation and tones for me.

Highly recommend for anyone who wants to learn Vietnamese effectively in a fun, supportive environment.

Great experience at LTL Saigon

I had an amazing experience studying at LTL School in Saigon. From the very first day, the staff and teachers were welcoming, professional, and always ready to help. The small group classes were ideal for improving my speaking skills and getting personal feedback from the teacher. Each lesson was well-structured, engaging, and adapted to our level, which made learning Vietnamese both fun and effective. I could see clear progress in just a few weeks. The friendly atmosphere at the school also made it easy to meet new people, share experiences, and stay motivated. I would definitely recommend LTL to anyone who wants to learn Vietnamese seriously while enjoying their time in Saigon.

LTL Saigon Review

Been studying Vietnamese at LTL Saigon for a while now, and honestly, it’s been such a great experience. The classes are small, usually just two or three people, so everyone gets plenty of chances to speak and ask questions. My teacher’s super chill and patient, and she always finds a fun way to explain tricky grammar points or tones. I’ve noticed my confidence growing a lot since I started — I’m actually able to hold small conversations now! The overall vibe of the school is really positive. Everyone’s friendly, the staff are super helpful, and they always make sure you feel comfortable. I’m staying with a local homestay family arranged by LTL, and that’s been amazing too. We eat dinner together almost every night, and it’s a great chance to practice Vietnamese in real life while enjoying home-cooked food.

Great experience with LTL Language School

I was here at the beginning of October for a Vietnamese course in Hanoi. It was a very good experience.

From the very beginning, everything was very professional and well-organized. It was always possible to ask questions regarding the process beforehand.

The lessons themselves were also excellent. The material was well-structured and presented in a clear and understandable way. The teaching was very effective and conducted in a pleasant atmosphere.

I would recommend the school at any time for anybody who wants to learn a new Language in a good atmosphere.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
Maybe take two weeks instead of one.
Pros
  • Very organized
  • Good Learning material
  • Good program
