Students Say

hear from learners who have experienced studying Mandarin with us

I joined That’s Mandarin in Chengdu as a complete beginner and took their intensive 4-week course. Honestly, it was one of the best learning experiences I’ve ever had. The teaching system is really well thought out — they combine modern online tools with traditional methods, so I always felt supported and could see my progress week by week. What I loved most was the community. The teachers go far beyond just delivering lessons. They invited us to lunch almost every day, encouraged us to practice during breaks, and constantly pushed us to use the language in real conversations. It made learning feel so much more natural.

Their online platform, NihaoCafe, is a one-stop shop for everything you learn. It’s used for in-class teaching, revision, videos, practice exercises, and much more. The school also organises lots of cultural activities and local events, which are always fun and interactive. These not only helped me understand Chinese culture better but also gave me extra chances to practice speaking in real-life situations. After just four weeks, I left with a solid foundation in Chinese and some unforgettable memories. My experience was so positive that I’ve now signed up for online lessons with the same teachers. If you’re thinking about learning Chinese in China, I can’t recommend this school highly enough !

— Oussama B

My experience studying Chinese at That’s Mandarin has been so good so far. I have been making great progress with my Chinese and i’ve also made good friends along the journey.

I’ve had 4 different teachers and they are all really patient and very helpful.

All the teachers are very friendly and always willing to help you if you need any help regarding your studies or any other issues.

Through the learning material I have not only learnt a lot of Chinese, but i’ve also learnt a lot about Chinese culture. I’ve also participated in their events, such as playing mahjong, making dumplings, going to KTV etc.

If you want to learn Chinese this is definitely a good choice. 😁

— Reno X

I can recommend this Chinese language school! The teacher are very skilled and always helpful. They also regularly do events with both Chinese language learner and native Chinese speaker.

The location is great and in the city center.

— Eulenda R

One of the best experiences in China-Chengdu is having the opportunity to be in the Mandarin School. Learn some grammatical rules in mandarin to improve my language skills, join the friendly school’s staff to participate in cultural activities like The Wine Market Event and other activities, made me grateful.
