Program Reviews

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!

I am a big fan of Chinese culture, and I am trying to start my Chinese adventure at the Global Village Language School.

Before I came here, I knew very little about Chinese, only "hello" and "thank you". But now, I can have a simple conversation! It's all thanks to the global village.

This school is amazing! It's full of energy, has funny Chinese posters everywhere, and has a great Chinese library with lots of interesting books.

The teachers are impeccable! My Chinese teacher, Miss Liang, has a unique and interesting teaching method. She used a combination of English and Chinese to help me understand complex concepts. Last time I learned the name of family members, she drew a family tree and let me remember it immediately. She always had a warm smile and encouraged me to speak up. Even when I'm wrong, she corrects me patiently.

I sincerely recommend you to come to Global Village Language School. Here, you can learn Chinese easily and happily, and deeply feel the charm of Chinese culture.

I came to Beijing for work with my boyfriend, and we enrolled in this school to learn some basis of conversational Chinese. Some friends of us suggested it to us and it has been a great choice! The programme of the course is very well organised. Our teacher, miss Liang, is very prepared and competent and she can also speak a very fluent English. She makes the lessons very interesting and interactive, adding extra contents to the textbook. We are learning a lot about the language and the Chinese culture. We are very happy about this course and we highly recommend both the school and the teacher!

I'm a Chinese descendant girl in Singapore. Although both of my parents are Chinese and can speak Chinese, I don't usually communicate with them in Chinese in daily life.

To improve my Chinese speaking skills, I took the course "Elementary Spoken Chinese 2" at Global Village School. The vocabulary and texts in the textbook are commonly used in daily life. The teacher patiently helps me correct my pronunciation, and my classmates are extremely friendly.

During this one-month study process, I've reaped rich rewards. If I have enough time to stay in China in the future, I will surely continue to study Chinese in-depth.

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!

I came to China without knowing much. I could only say "Hi" and "Thank you" in Chinese. So, I decided to join this school to study the Chinese language. After just a couple of months here, my Chinese has improved a lot. I can now use basic conversation skills in my daily life. Coming here was a very good choice, and I highly recommend studying at this school.The prices are reasonable compared to what I have gained. My teacher is very friendly and helpful. I have never felt stressed during class. Our teachers always encourage us to communicate in Chinese with our classmates, which has helped me improve a lot.

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.

I just came to China this September and have always loved Chinese culture, so I enrolled in Global Village School in Wudaokou campus.

Now I'm taking the Basic Chinese course and I'm getting a lot out of it. The course starts with Pinyin and simple Chinese characters, and the teacher helps me to memorize the complicated strokes in many interesting ways, such as by playing a game of Chinese character cards. I used to think that Chinese characters were like complicated paintings and I couldn't learn them at all, but now I can recognize hundreds of commonly used characters and I can write simple sentences, so my progress is very obvious.

I also participated in a dumpling-making culture class organized by the organization, which was so much fun! Although the dumplings I made were very strange in shape, we all had a great time making dumplings and communicating with each other at the same time. Not only did I learn how to make dumplings, but I also gained a deeper understanding of Chinese food culture.

This school has a comfortable environment and a great learning atmosphere.

I am a guy who couldn't speak Chinese at all. when I was in college in Australia, I heard that Beijing had a lot of good food and fun, I thought I needed to try it. but I can't speak Chinese, so I first found a Chinese school in Beijing, I know a few friends at Tsinghua University, and they said that the Global Village school is very good, the school may have been built more than 30 years ago. I signed up for a course here. They have a very good atmosphere of group classes, as well as a very flexible one-on-one time, which I like. I love my teacher very much, she is a very lovely person! I have been learning for less than a year, and now I can speak a lot of useful Chinese. I can go to the bar and talk to Chinese people, although I may not understand them when they speak very fast haha, but I can express my views with Chinese people in Chinese, I feel very accomplished! I really recommend Global Village School, you can really improve your Chinese here, and you can also master Chinese knowledge very easily! Oh, by the way, when I was there, they had moon cake making, which was fun, and a lot of other fun things, em, all lot that is free, it’s so nice!

Global Village offers great teachers and helpful environment to get involve with the culture and with the language. The classrooms are full equipped with the correct materials to have dynamic lessons. The books have the perfect level, they facilites the learning going fast and feeling how you are improving your Chinese in just some few weeks. All the stuff is very helpful and kind. You feel very welcome every day. Cultural activities are so incredible. China has too much history to share and Global shares it very well. I feel so happy to be part of the institution and grateful for the opportunity.
