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

Lovely people at LTL Chengdu!

I spent 3 weeks at Chengdu LTL school to start learning Mandarin from zero. I was very pleased with what I could learn in that short time, especially due to my lovely teacher Pànpàn who would always search for the best way of explaining the things to me and was always very patient with me. She was quite flexible in adapting her teaching style to my needs. Besides classes with her were fun, so I was always looking foreward to them. And even besides classes, she would always answer my questions or help me out with daily life struggles in a new country. I´m very glad I had her as my teacher.
Also the other teachers, Unicorn and Ying are lovely and always took good care of us. The teachers and Mandy even showed us around the city, took us to the places we should see and the meals we should try. Also the atmosphere among the students was quite comfortable and we enjoyed spending time together after classes. That made my experience in Chengdu very rich and I hope to come back to see everyone again! I´m especially grateful for Pànpàn and Unicorn for taking such good care of us.

Huge Recommendation for Korean Language Studies

I attended class for two weeks and it was amazing!

Both teachers I had, Jennifer and Yoonjeong, were super accomodating and very motivated to teach the students. I am glad I chose this school over the others and would recommend anyone to take a look at their program.

Staff are also very friendly and helpful wherever you need it. The director kept checking up on me, trying to see if the classes match my level and if I needed any adjustments to the program. I felt very much cared for and admire the motivation of the staff and the teachers to make a good experience for the students.

Bildungsurlaub LTL Taipei

From my first email to the school, I had a good feeling about my stay and my booked course. Every question I had was answered really fast and in detail.

The teaching rooms have a good atmosphere and water, tea, coffee, and more stuff are provided. After class, you can stay there and do homework or other fun activities. I received the work materials on site, and there was no need to bring a laptop or a tablet to class.

I can recommend all of my teachers, from Tammy X., Francine, to Anqi. Everyone at the LTL school was willing to help me and my classmates, even with things outside of class.

Pros
  • You don't have to be afraid of making mistakes
  • You always have a contact person at the school
  • Recognized as Bildungsurlaub in Germany, Berlin

Native country trip

Hello everyone, I would like to comment on this web page to testify to the excellent experience I had by trusting the LTL organization. Indeed, I was born in Vietnam but I grew up abroad in France. Cut off from my culture of origin at a very young age, I decided to undertake this journey back to cultural and social immersion. My teacher was immediately super attentive and was able to advise me as soon as I arrived. The place where we study is quite nice close to my Western landmarks in terms of atmosphere. I recommend don't hesitate.

What was your funniest moment?
Dining out with other international students.

LTL Language school Chengdu

My 3-week program at LTL was incredible, and a huge part of that was my teacher, Panpan. She made learning Chinese not only effective but also really fun. Her patience and clear explanations gave me the confidence to pass the HSK 1 exam. 很高兴 !

Outside of class, the Chengdu Safari was a highlight. We got to explore amazing parts of the city, which was a fantastic and immersive cultural experience. It was the perfect way to practice what we learned in class.

I can't recommend Panpan enough.  Tā shì zuì hǎo de lǎoshī! If you're thinking about studying at LTL, you should definitely do it

Hanoi LTL

I studied in Hanoi for a month and in that time my teacher Jasmine has been incredibly kind, patient and attentive in teaching me Vietnamese. After one month I had noticed real progress and am more confident in speaking. Classes were held in a cafe which was a refreshing scene compared to a classroom itself. Class times were flexible which was beneficial as I still a university student. Also, my teacher took me on a weekend trip to visit Tà Xùa, this was such a unique experience and a great getaway from city.

Bildungsurlaub - A Personal and Supportive Atmosphere

Bildungsurlaub in Shanghai: a two‑week Mandarin course, fully self‑funded for personal growth.

I’m a beginner (only a few months with an app). Both weeks included 2 hours daily of 1‑on‑1—very personal and tailored; I learned a lot with Anne—and 4 hours of small‑group classes (week 1: 4 students; week 2: 3) with Ray and Winnie. We followed the textbook but deviated smartly when it helped, for example with tenses and practical dialogues. I realized my big Hanzi gap and the need to catch up, so I took many fundamentals to review at home.

The atmosphere was warm and close‑knit—breaks felt familial, with friendly chats among students from other small classes.

My accommodation was uniquely charming and just three metro stops from the school, which made daily study convenient and comfortable.

Overall, the mix of tailored 1‑on‑1 guidance and intimate group sessions delivered steady progress and confidence in everyday situations.

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
We joined a “language safari” to Longhua Temple and learned a ton just on the metro and along the way—reading signs,
asking for directions, and handling tickets. We didn’t meet Qinqin’s group in the end, but the journey itself became the lesson.
No extra prep or follow-up study, and no chats with staff—just real, in-transit practice.
Anne was patient and supportive throughout, which made it both fun and surprisingly effective.
Pros
  • Personal, individualized, and genuinely family-like atmosphere
  • All learning materials were provided
  • Free beverages—plus a small sweet from time to time
Cons
  • Staying with a host family didn’t quite materialize
  • Duration felt too brief :-)

LTL Taipei Mandarin Language School

I highly recommend LTL Language School in Taipei! The teachers are fantastic, the environment is incredibly welcoming, and you can make real progress in a short amount of time. Everyone is super friendly and supportive. The classes are well-structured but also fun, making it easy to stay motivated. Teacher Tammy Xu was the absolute best, patient, knowledgeable, and always made learning enjoyable. It was a great experience and I am glad I chose to study here. If you want to improve your Mandarin and meet nice people, this is a great place to go.
