Brilliant online program

I have been living in central China for around 18 months, I've had various Chinese lessons but That's Mandarin has been the most useful one. I think their teaching methodods are fantastic. I'm asked to write a story each week (obviously in Chinese!), I do this about my own experiences that week which in turn makes my lessons about everyday situations. We then discuss this in my lesson and use that language to create new conversations. The fact that I have lessons via Skype has forced my listening ability as well which is brilliant. My teacher, Hu Laoshi, is fantastic, she's really fun and very patient when I'm having a bad day!

I have scored 5 for housing, safety and social points - this is because I only have online lessons and have not visited either of the schools in China. So please don't acknowledge those points.

I will carry on with my Chinese studies even after leaving, and I'll definitely stick with That's Mandarin.
