studied General ChineseNice school with professional staff
I’m currently taking a part-time group course at That’s Mandarin. The teachers are very experienced as they are able to explain grammatical structures very clearly. In addition, I found their online learning app Mandarin café very useful in terms of self-studying.

studied Junior Chinese ProgramsWill come back again next year!
I took classes with That's Mandarin in June. My teachers were all super nice and know how to make classes fun and enjoyable. At the beginning I felt a bit nervous and didn't want to talk much in class, but my teachers were always encouraging me to speak Chinese, which made me feel much easier talking with my classmates in Chinese.

studied General ChineseIt was fun!
I started to study Chinese at That’s Mandarin in May and everything was really good. I was studying in a group and I had plenty of chances to speak Chinese in class. My teacher was really funny and often told us interesting facts about Chinese culture. Loved it!

studied Chinese onlineExcellent online classes
I had online classes with That’s Mandarin for three months and I was quite satisfied with the classes they offered online. They have their own online platform where you can see your teacher and the new words and phrases at the same time. My teacher was very nice and left some homework for me every time after the class. The connection was very good when using their online platform to have classes, which made everything easy and clear.

studied General ChineseGreat school, great teachers
I’ve just finished my course at That’s Mandarin and I really enjoyed it. I took an intensive course and my classes were well-organized. Class contents were designed in such a way that you would never feel bored in class. I had two teachers and they were both very nice and polite, and everything was clearly explained. In addition, their online learning app Mandarin Café is great. You can review your notes whenever you want as long as you have a PC or a mobile phone.

studied General ChineseNice Environment and Professional Teachers
I studied Chinese at That’s Mandarin for half a year and it was very good. I was actually able to start having simple conversations in Chinese after only a few classes. The school environment is impeccable, and my teacher was very nice.

studied General ChineseEverything is brilliant
I’m now studying at That’s Mandarin and I have only positive things to say about this school. The teachers are very nice and patient. Their learning system covers a wide range of topics relating to Chinese people’s daily life. I am studying in a group and our teacher interacts with each of us in class in terms of practicing Chinese. I would recommend this school to everyone who wants to learn Chinese.
