A great way to learn Chinese
I recently undertook a 6 week group class at LTL and found it to be a really worthwhile experience. Having no prior experience studying Chinese (outside of Duolingo but I found that I had flown past that in a week of study) I find I am in a position to order, have slight conversation and understand some really useful concepts especially for my time in Taiwan. Inside the classroom this was helped by my teachers Pinwei, Thomas, Sisi and Issa as well as my fellow classmates. Not only were the teachers really patient throughout but they each had a unique take on the class which complemented my experience and worked well between each other. All of them did their best and made my classes memorable. My classmates were a joy to study alongside and we were even able to have a few laughs along the way. Outside of the classroom, I was fortunate enough to go to many after class lunches which gave me the chance to connect with my peers and helped foster a great community with students outside of my assigned group. We were fortunate to have the chance to also go to different events like movies, KTV, board game nights and various other activities. Thank you to Riona and Alin for organising and helping at these events! I'd also like to thank Greta for her help in supporting my enrolment, it was incredibly helpful! Overall, I really enjoyed my time there and would highly recommend the group classes if you want to learn mandarin, you will be in for a good time.
