Program Reviews

My experience was unique . Great professionals.I enjoy learning on the NihaoCafe platform, it has very interesting materials and videos. The videos look like a drama series, with each class presenting a new story that is connected to the previous ones.
The topics are very relevant to my life, and the teachers provide practical explanations. My teacher prepares rich content for each class, covering topics that I encounter in everyday life. I study at the Beijing campus.
The support from the school team is also excellent; everyone is friendly and enthusiastic, and I really appreciate this team. I recommend everyone to come and learn with this team—it's a unique and enjoyable experience!

I’m currently learning Chinese in That’s mandarin school and absolutely love their teaching techniques. My current teacher is Niu Laoshi and love her unique teaching techniques that she managed to teach me based on how far I could go and it makes me wanna learn and know more and also make me do homework regularly. My Chinese has been improved a lot just in two months and recommended to have private class for more effective learning experiences. Stuffs are super helpful and environment is clean and private.

I've only been here a few weeks, and I'm amazed at how much Chinese I'm already using daily in Beijing. I have a great mix of 1-on-1 learning and in a very small group - so I cannot hide! My teacher, Qin Laoshi, is patient and shares both Chinese language knowledge and insights into the culture too.

That's Mandarin also organizes regular events to help students mingle across groups. I've met some really great people so far so it's good for socialising too. I can now hold my own in mahjong too!

I highly recommend this school. My classmates and I had an absolutely fantastic time here. The school boasts a superb learning environment that's conducive to focused study. Additionally, there's a rich array of engaging cultural activities, through which I made numerous new friends. The staff are incredibly attentive and warmhearted. I'm particularly fond of the teachers from Beijing; they are exceptionally skilled educators, and under their guidance, I've achieved remarkable progress. What's more, the school's digital platform is incredibly convenient, enabling me to review and preview materials at my own pace, wherever I am. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to further my studies in Chinese in the future.

A friend of mine talked to me about this school. I've decided to come and so far, my experience is very good. The teachers, the support, the website itself are very useful. You can find 1:1 classes, group classes, intensive courses. I would recommend That's Mandarin school for beginners and for the students that want to practice more and to improve their skills. They have as well others activities that help to know better the culture and the story of this fascinating country.
Moreover, it's a good occasion to meet new people and to share abroad life experience.

That's Mandarin is a complete support to learn Chinese.

I have a very nice experience learning Chinese in That's Mandarin, their unique method for teaching and learning is one of the reason.

Their Coordinator is very friendly and helpfull that makes administration easy.

Most importantly is very patient teacher who always tell me that learning chinese is very possible and i can do it on my own pace.

The school ambience and their beverage, hot and cold, you can have for free, is also refreshing.

ThatsMandarin is an exceptional language school that offers tailored Chinese courses to suit your language proficiency. With the help of my teacher, 孟老师, I have been able to improve my Mandarin speaking skills in just a short period of time. Her teaching approach perfectly caters to my learning style and interests, allowing me to learn new vocabulary and engaging in interesting discussions. ThatsMandarin own online platform is great for reviewing and preparing the classes, as well. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to bring their Chinese skills to a new level.

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the online lessons offered by That’s Mandarin, and my experience was exceptional. Whether you're a beginner or looking to advance your skills in Mandarin, the school's well-structured curriculum, professional teaching staff, and user-friendly platform create an ideal learning environment for all levels of learners.

1. Flexible and Convenient Learning Experience

One of the highlights of That's Mandarin is its flexibility. The online lessons are conducted through their custom platform called Nihao Café, which is easy to navigate and offers features like class notes, vocabulary reviews, and interactive exercises, all integrated into one place. The lessons can be scheduled according to your availability, making it convenient for people with busy schedules or those in different time zones.

2. Highly Professional Teachers

Every lesson I took was led by a native-speaking instructor who was not only fluent but also highly skilled in teaching Mandarin to non-native speakers. They tailored the lessons to my level and learning goals. Their patience and encouragement made the learning process smooth and enjoyable.

3. Innovative Learning Tools

Their Online platform automatically saves notes from each lesson, to review key vocabulary and grammar points after class. There are also built-in flashcards for vocabulary retention.

4. Excellent Student Support

From the initial sign-up process to booking classes, the customer service team was responsive and accommodating. They helped me set up my account, schedule lessons and answered any questions I had about the curriculum or lesson format.

I enrolled with That's Mandarin Chinese language learning course 4 years ago. I have been taking 1:1 online lessons on a weekly basis ever since. At the time of enrolling I could say few basic ("taxi level") sentences. By now I am able to hold conversation with native speakers in Chinese and am progressing with reading Hanzi. The program is well tailored with structured basic lessons' series to start with. Later on it offers wide variety of additional texts, videos and exercises. Special thanks goes to my teacher (Zhang Laoshi). She was able to engage me in a simple conversation from the early stage with as much as possible use of only Chinese during lessons. With a nice mix of fixed program and small-talk the classes have always been fun. Her ability to explain sometimes complex language constructs in a form that I can understand and relate to has helped me a lot. Big thanks and looking forward to continue! Warmly recommend.

This was an excellent course. My teachers are experienced, fund and engaging. They were able to adapt the classes to my interests and ability. They also used technology very effectively to support my learning. The school conveniently located and has very nice interior design and general atmosphere. The school also organises social activities too so it is a good way to make friends with other people and get to know different parts of the city and Chinese culture. I have no hesitation in recommending this school.
