Arriving in China was daunting. I had travelled internationally before but never to live, it was a new and strange experience.
SN Mandarin had a huge role in helping me get settled, not just with my grasp of the language, but socially as well.
I always knew the staff were nearby to help, and my language mentor was patient and had a good sense of humor.
With so many floors, waiting for the elevator can be annoying, but the location was convenient with food and travel close by. I recommend their services to foreigners travelling to Shanghai.
What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
The school held an event where we made dumplings together. I had some experience making them before, but never in front of locals! It was a fun afternoon.
