Review
I had always wanted to start learning Mandarin because it genuinely interested me. I already have lots of experience with European languages, but I wanted to branch out and challenge myself with something completely different, and Chinese had always tickled my fancy.
From the very first contact, my experience with Silk Mandarin has been excellent. Lily was incredibly helpful from the start, explaining everything clearly through messages and even arranging a Zoom call to go through the course structure. She was always available to answer questions and resolve any doubts, she is a truly fabulous member of the team.
My teacher, Evelyn, is absolutely amazing! I study one-to-one on the part-time online course, and she is patient, encouraging and extremely professional. Thanks to her teaching, I am already gaining confidence in speaking Mandarin, which I never expected so early on. I am currently studying for HSK1 and fully intend to continue with further courses at Silk Mandarin to keep progressing with my Chinese and HSK levels.
The online learning platform is very well designed and detailed, with clear videos that help you start practising Mandarin from day one. Apart from the fixed weekly class, I have complete flexibility to organise my self-study around my own schedule, which is ideal. The online materials, videos and examples complement the live classes perfectly and make the learning process much more effective.
Overall, I would definitely recommend Silk Mandarin. It is extremely beginner-friendly, fun and interactive, and you can really see your progress from lesson to lesson. It has been a brilliant experience so far, and I am very excited to continue my Mandarin journey with them.
