Program Reviews

My experience at That’s Mandarin Beijing was truly tailored to my needs. The 1-on-1 lessons focused on areas where I needed the most help, and the teachers’ expertise made every session productive and engaging.

The WeChat public account 'That's Mandarin' was a fantastic resource for cultural insights and learning tips, while the Nihao Cafe platform gave me the flexibility to practice and review lessons at my convenience. These tools, combined with the school’s excellent textbooks, made learning both efficient and enjoyable.

The campus was modern and welcoming, with a positive atmosphere that encouraged focus and growth. Whether you’re just starting or looking to advance, That’s Mandarin Beijing offers everything you need for success.

I have been studying at That's Mandarin School in Shanghai for half a year, and my experience has been fantastic. The environment here is welcoming and conducive to learning. The teachers are highly professional, patient, and genuinely dedicated to helping students improve.

What I find especially valuable is the teaching approach. Lessons are not confined to the classroom; we also have opportunities to go out and practice in real-life settings. This hands-on experience has been incredibly helpful for truly improving my Chinese language skills.

The school also offers great extra resources. For example, I can use videos on their official WeChat account to study Chinese anytime. The videos are fun and easy to follow, helping me review and learn at my own pace. In addition, there are monthly cultural activities like Mahjong classes, tea ceremonies, and festival celebrations. These activities help me learn more about Chinese culture and make studying here even more enjoyable.

This school has made learning Chinese both effective and fun. I’ve improved my language skills a lot and gained a deeper understanding of the culture. I highly recommend it!

The teachers here are very professional, and their classes are always buzzing with energy. They've really opened my ears to practical Mandarin phrases, to the point where I can now book hotels and inquire about prices with confidence. The course content is diverse, making learning fun and engaging. The other students here are also quite interesting. We chat and practice Chinese together during breaks. By the way, the activities here are very diverse, which have helped me integrate into the local community more quickly and learn about many fascinating cultures. If I come back to China, I'd like to continue studying here.

I always thought learning Chinese was tough because the characters looked like little robots. But after picking up a few languages, I figured, why not take on this mysterious language? So, I decided to give Chinese a shot and found That's Mandarin. I took a trial lesson and then signed up for a one-month group class in Chengdu. I figured learning a language in its environment is the best way. Before heading to China, I learned some basics, like Pinyin and simple greetings. When I got there, I realized that characters don’t have Pinyin, so I decided to tackle the characters themselves. My teacher had some great tricks up her sleeve for learning them. She’d tell me the stories and logic behind each character, which made me fall in love with learning Chinese. After class, I used a website that was super helpful! It’s both practical and visually appealing. All things considered, I highly recommend studying at TM.

Learning Mandarin at That’s Mandarin Beijing has been an inspiring experience. The teachers use innovative methods, like role-playing and storytelling, to keep lessons engaging. In just four months, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my confidence and fluency.

The Nihao Cafe platform is an integral part of the learning experience. It allows me to easily review lessons and track my growth, making the learning process both organized and efficient.

I especially appreciate the school’s focus on cultural immersion. Group outings and interactive activities have helped me apply what I’ve learned in class to real-life situations. This hands-on approach is what sets That’s Mandarin apart from other language schools.

Honestly, I really like the teaching method here at the school. Because we have small classes, so it's very easy to build a relationship with our teachers. And whenever you have a problem you just ask them and they would basically make the whole lesson based on your problem, or maybe if you have any problem you can just maybe say a little bit and ask them and contact them and be like: “ Oh, I do not understand this part of the lesson. I cannot use this grammar rule could you please help me?” and they are always very helpful and very quick in helping you.

And then I also like the fact that we have a lot of chances to discuss in class, so we have the chance to express our opinions and try to talk about nowadays topics or whatever during classes.

This is my 3rd class with That's Mandarin so I haven't experienced much so far, but as of now I have really enjoyed my learning experience. I feel that the free demo class accurately placed me in a level that challenges me, while also not pushing me too hard that I feel unmotivated. The teachers have been very thorough in their explanations and cater the content to my interests. I currently do the private 1:1 sessions and I feel like I leave the center every time with lot to review at home! That's Mandarin also uses an in-house platform called Nihao Cafe that helps me review at home and practice on my own schedule.

I love being a foreign student here in China. First of all, I love it here in Hangzhou, the environment; I love the school, where I'm studying; and I love the weather, and Chinese people are so nice and welcoming. So I've always felt very welcomed since day one that I've been here.

During my free time I usually spend a lot of time studying Chinese because I really want to improve the language since I'm here, but then I've also got the chance to practice some sport that are very like common here in China like badminton or basketball or what else I think I've tried a couple. and I also like to work out but the best thing is just go around the lake here in Hangzhou, in Xihu and just go for a walk or even just biking in the city is amazing. So you can just enjoy just going out.

My experience with 1-on-1 Mandarin courses at That's Mandarin Beijing was fantastic. The platform NihaoCafe is user-friendly, providing easy access to materials and progress tracking. The curriculum is well-structured and personalized, making each lesson engaging and effective. My tutor was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, always ready to help. The service and support from the staff were top-notch. Additionally, the campus is modern and welcoming. Overall, That's Mandarin Beijing offers an exceptional learning environment for Mandarin, and I highly recommend them for anyone seeking personalized and effective language learning.

As a new student at the Chinese language school, my learning experience here has been truly amazing! Not only have I quickly improved my Chinese language skills, but I've also gained a deep understanding of Chinese culture and traditions.

The teachers are all very professional and patient, using a variety of fun activities and games to make our learning relaxed and enjoyable. I particularly like the small class size here, as it feels like everyone gets enough attention and help.

The school's facilities are also great, with a well-resourced library and bright, comfortable classrooms. Moreover, the school organizes various cultural activities, allowing me to experience the charm of Chinese culture, such as calligraphy and tea ceremonies, in my spare time.

I feel that That'sMandarin is not just a place to learn Chinese, but also a platform for cultural exchange. Here, I've made friends from all over the world; we study and explore together, making this experience truly invaluable.

In summary, I am very satisfied with everything here and highly recommend it to everyone.
