Even better than Mandarin Immersion
InstantMandarin.com helped turn the disaster of the COVID-19 pandemic into the best thing ever for my son's Mandarin language ability. InstantMandarin is the real deal. We've taken more than 350 Mandarin language lessons through InstantMandarin over the last year, and have been so impressed with the focus, dedication, and professionalism of its teachers. My son was enrolled in a 50/50 Mandarin Immersion program starting in the first grade. When COVID-19 shut down his school midway through second grade and left me homeschooling for a year and a half, I didn't know what to do at first. That's when I found InstantMandarin.com. Affordable with outstanding instructors, InstantMandarin enabled us to have daily lessons in Mandarin speaking and Chinese character reading. My son's skills has blossomed with this daily exposure to enthusiastic, native Mandarin speakers. He can now converse freely and confidently using a wide variety of Mandarin vocabulary, as well as reading Chinese characters fluidly. Now that COVID-19 is on the wane my son has rejoined a Mandarin Immersion school and is at the top of his class in his Mandarin speaking and reading. We are so appreciative for the contributions InstantMandarin has made to my son's education, and we continue taking daily lessons to push his abilities further. I encourage other parents who are serious about raising bilingual children to give InstantMandarin's lessons a try, every day if possible. Kids are smart, and tend to learn things that they do day after day. full disclosure: InstantMandarin gave me nothing for this review, we are simply very happy customers. Thanks to all of InstantMandarin's teaching staff for their persistence and dedication!
