Language Programs in China

Școala este foarte bună cu profesorii foarte bine pregătiți într-un oraș turistic ,școala profesorii și orașul fac un mix foarte pozitiv. Am găsit în China un oraș foarte liniștit primitor cu oameni foarte buni , este vorba de orașul Beihai.

I visit this school the second time to learn more about chinese language and culture I like the warmly welcome the teachers and teammembers give to me The method to teach the pupils is different to the way other schools do teaching the combination of reading,listening,writing is very helpful to dig deeper into chinese language It is very inspiring to know different teachers. I want to mention that me as a pupil never had the feeling to be blamed

In Chengdu habe ich mit Sprachlehrerin Wu bei Null angefangen. Nach nur einem Monat konnte ich schon auf Chinesisch bestellen, einkaufen und zum Teil einfachen Gesprächen folgen. Lehrerin Wu ist absolut phänomenal, sie motiviert und spornt an ohne bei komplexen Themen zu überfordern. Ich bin extrem zufrieden mit ihr und That’s Mandarin!

I had a great experience at this language school! The teachers are friendly, professional, and very helpful. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to improve their language skills in a supportive and enjoyable environment.

My experience so far has been really good and interesting. The school is nice, classes are interesting and I can already see the improvement in terms of the language skills. Teachers are friendly and really nice and the city itself is beautiful and convenient.

That’s Mandarin being a modern and engaging approach to learning Chinese. Their digital platform makes it easy to review actual notes and vocabulary from class, which saves a ton of time. The teachers are flexible with scheduling, and they focus on real, everyday conversation rather than just drilling you out of a textbook.

I only spent 5 days at the school, but even starting from zero, I learned some useful Chinese basics. The small classes with Stiles and especially the 1-on-1 lessons with Weiii were really helpful. There are also cultural activities to join, and Chengdu itself is an amazing city with lots to explore. Had a great time and would definitely recommend it!

Having studied Chinese for six months at university before letting much of what I learned fade over time, and having visited Beijing three or four times while my aunt was working here, I had long wanted to pick the language back up, so I followed her recommendation that This is the best Chinese language school in China and signed up, finding the VIP support to live up fully to that reputation, with the team arranging accommodation, visa matters, break‑time activities and refreshments so thoughtfully that all attention can go toward practising and improving Chinese alongside friendly classmates, which has made for fast progress and a really enjoyable learning journey.

Preparing to attend university in China and finding the Chinese instruction at my preparatory programme dull and uninspiring, I signed up here on a trial basis, discovering an environment that stands apart as the only place where meaningful progress in Chinese feels achievable, an experience I would suggest to anyone stuck with similar frustrations.

Having moved to Beijing with my family for work, I started learning survival Chinese from scratch with worries about how challenging this journey would turn out, yet the practical language covered in every lesson transfers directly to daily situations, opening up new parts of the city for me to explore each day, and the growing ease with which I can handle small everyday tasks brings a real sense of excitement, all supported by the well-designed NihaoCafe platform and highly competent teachers whose work I would recommend to anyone starting out and feeling intimidated by Chinese.

Having studied Chinese briefly back at university, I joined the ING group class at That’s Mandarin one month ago, where steady progress has been far easier to achieve than expected thanks to the teaching approaches adopted by the teachers, who manage to turn the process of learning Chinese into something straightforward and genuinely enjoyable. Highly recommend！

At That's Mandarin you have small classes with a great structured lessons. The teachers are very helpful and make the words and phrases applicable to daily life. The best part of learning is being in a group with people that are also doing the same thing.

I really like that's mandarin for many reason ; 1 . small classe which help get better easily and lot of laoshu which help varie the way of education and learning ; 2. good ressource with the nihao cofee platform ; 3. good mood in the school

I just finished my four week program in Chengdu and it exceeded my expectations by far! Before coming here I was worried about how to socialize with all the people and staff. Turns out they all were easy going and always in for a joke! By the time the first week had passed I already became friends with my Alex (my teacher), Pan Pan and Stiles. Later on I was also introduced to Wuyi. Alex is a great teacher with even better teaching skills. Whenever I didn‘t understand something or struggled following she’d always manage to explain it in a way I‘d understand. My chinese has progressed a lot in the past four weeks and time really flew by. Before coming to Chengdu I wouldn‘t have thought learning chinese could be such fun and easy. Alex, Pan Pan, Stiles and Wuyi are really funny and it motivated me to talk more to them using the chinese I had just been taught. Whenever we went out for lunch or having a safari day (lessons being taken outside) I made unforgettable experiences and learned more about Chengdu‘s culture and customs. Thus not only progressing my chinese skills but also my understanding of different habits. Chengdu‘s food is great and I enjoyed most of the dishes. However it might be a bit too spicy for foreigners as they tend to have a lower spice tolerance :P In my free time I got to discover local places thanks to Alex‘s tips! Pan Pan always had funny stories to tell which broadened my Vocabulary by quite a bit. Stiles talked to me about similar interest. Thus also helping with attaining a wider range of vocabularies. Wuyi was easy to talk to no matter the topic. In total I‘d rate my experience in Chengdu 5 out of 5 stars. There was nothing really that I could complain about. The food was yummy, my host family was welcoming and kind, my newly made friends were funny&easy going and my teacher had not only good teaching skills but also the same humor as me. Now thinking back it is sad I couldnt stay longer… I will definitely be coming back to LTL Chengdu if I get the opportunity!

Alex, PanPan, Stiles and Wuyi are all going to love reading this, especially the part about sharing the same sense of humour. Thanks so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review. Keep up the great work studying Chinese and we hope to see you back at LTL Chengdu again some day! LTL Team

After just two weeks of my intensive Chinese course, I can honestly say that my Chinese has improved significantly in a very short time. I highly recommend an intensive course to anyone who wants to make rapid progress. The classes are interactive, and you learn new vocabulary and sentence structures every day. The school also gave me the opportunity to make new friends from all over the world, including students from other classes, as everyone gathers in the lounge during breaks. I still have another month and a half of classes ahead of me, so I’m confident that by the end of the course, my Chinese will have reached a level I could hardly have imagined before starting! Overall, it’s a great environment for learning Chinese quickly while meeting new people!

I spent 2 weeks in Beihai （北海）this summer studying Chinese and it was one of the best classes I've ever had. The teacher and the school absolutely listened to what I wanted and needed - as I studied Chinese in university my level is high enough to qualify for single class only and my wish was to train my speaking ability again and to revise a lot! And that's what we did - 4h of speaking Chinese every day! In addition I really liked the overall atmosphere at the school, the staff are all very kind and fun, organizing activities for the students and helping them whenever they have any questions or needs. Additionally, I had a lovely homestay and got close to the family members in it. I feel very grateful for them and for how warmly they welcomed me into their home. In terms of location - the school is located conveniently in the city center. Beihai is not a big city, so public transportation is a bit of a hassle but it's still manageable even for those who don't dare to rent an e-Scooter (like me, lol). You will be able to enjoy a nice beach with seaside, seafood and other local specialities there. :-)

So happy to hear you had a great time with us and thanks for sharing the great pictures too :) We loved having you in Beihai and you made some excellent progress in just two weeks! Keep it up. Best wishes, LTL Team

My experience learning Chinese at That’s Mandarin has been extremely positive. The friendly atmosphere, highly capable teachers, and terrifically useful online resources has made the process of learning Chinese as straightforward and enjoyable as possible. Would most certainly recommend!

From September 21 to October 9 I attended a small Chinese class at LTL in Beijing. It was really a great experience! In the morning, in a small group, I learned about several topics. The grammar and the vocabulary were introduced by Summer Wang, our teacher. She did a truly outstanding job. She was well prepared, spoke excellent English, challenged us and encouraged us to speak. In the afternoon I had one-on-one lessons with Snow Yang. I talked a lot with her and learned a great deal, not only about the language but also about the culture. Thanks to her empathetic, flexible and funny personality, we had great conversations. And I even learned to write some Chinese characters. I would like to thank the whole LTL team in Beijing for a wonderful time!

Thanks for your lovely words, Markus. We're delighted you had a great time studying with us in Beijing. Hope to see you back again someday soon! LTL Team

From 9/13 to 9/25 2026 I attended the A2-class in a small gruop at LTL - four students in the first week, three in the second. Our teacher, Alice He, did a great job answering all our questions and focus on the skills we needed to improve the most. My Chinese speaking skills definitely improved. I also enjoyed the lighthearted atmosphere - the staff was always ready to help, ready for a chat concerning life and challenges in Beijing. Linda organized great events - the Ditan book market and the sketching lessons were highlights. Rita accompanied me on several afternoons: 798, the tea museum, and her home were great possibilites to learn about life in China. All in all a clear recommendation for anyone at any age who wants to learn Chinese in Beijing. Hugs and many thanks Roswitha

Thanks so much for your kind words, Roswitha. We hope to see you again some day :) LTL Team

I find the classes to be engaging and they make it easy to both retain knowledge and build upon what I have learned. It is a great opportunity to surround myself with students who have similar goals, and the school provides class dates that are accessible.
