What Our Students Say

icon quote yellow

I’ve taken online classes in college and didn’t care for them. But with the change of things in the world, I had the option to either suspend my classes or move to online classes. I was hesitant at first, but I’m so happy that I chose to do online classes. The teachers are amazing. Not only are they helping you to speak the language, they are helping you learn to read and write it as well.

The online learning platform is very well set up and easy to navigate. My teacher is always on time and prepares lessons tailored to my Chinese level and my own interests.

I took some courses with them and they are really AMAZING. They sent me details about the platform on which we would have the classes and a day before our course, I log on with someone to see if the connection is working. The classes were on time and the teachers really GREAT and EXPERIENCED with international students.

Frequently Asked Questions

GET YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

What is the course schedule?

As the whole course is customized, you can have classes anytime you want. Contact us and we will help you find a suitable schedule.

Who are the teachers?

All our teachers are native Chinese speakers, university graduates with majors in Chinese language education or Chinese literature. Besides, they have also previously obtained a “teaching Mandarin as a second language” certificate before they joined us and successfully completed That’s Mandarin’s mandatory Teachers Training Course (TTC).

We have high requirements for our teachers, and only hire 5% of applicants.

What teaching methods do you use, and which learning platform?

We've developed our own teaching and learning methods. We use our own in-house Chinese learning platform NihaoCafe for all classes. You will be able to find all your class materials, read the teacher’s comments, review your lessons, and schedule your classes.

What materials are used during classes?

We use our own in-house learning platform NihaoCafe for online classes.

For HSK 1-3, the standard course is built around a TV series we filmed featuring 64 episodes, and the story set in modern China with over 70 characters in 45 locations. Students can watch the videos, read interactive dialogues, learn new words & grammar, and practice with exercises on the platform.

For HSK 4, more advanced learners can read articles on various topics: Chinese culture, modern China, China’s economy & job market, dialogues from daily life, and many more. This level has the same set of interactive exercises as the previous levels.

For HSK 5-6, our teachers customize the lessons completely based on student’s learning style and goals. They choose from an extensive pool of materials such as articles, videos, comic books, translation classes, HSK papers, and more.

Custom materials are available to students of all levels if they wish to customize their private classes.

If are interested in a specific field, you might choose a specialized course such as Chinese for Business, Diplomatic, Medical purposes etc.

Will the classes be taught in English?

All of our classes are taught in Chinese to give students a fully immersive Chinese experience. Even for absolute beginners, our teachers will only use limited English to help you understand them. Our teacher will use pictures, videos, signs, and gestures to help you learn.

As your Chinese level progresses, less and less English will be used in your classes and you will be able to understand more and more Chinese every day.

How do you deal with time zone differences?

Our classes are held within the school working hours. Our campuses are open from 8:00 am till 9:00 pm on weekdays and from 9:00 am till 6:00 pm on weekends (China Standard Time (CST) or UTC+8).

Can I prepare for HSK with this online course?

Yes. Course content will be tailor-made to your requirements so that you can focus on learning the things you need most.

Can I have a free trial?

Yes. Simply contact us and apply for a free trial lesson with our Chinese teachers. You will love the class!
