Great experience, beginner friendly, well organized, supportive environment
I’ve been studying at SN Mandarin School for a month now, attending classes three times a week for 3.5 hours each session, together with seven other students who are also au pairs. Learning Chinese here has been such an exciting experience; every class feels engaging and productive. Our teacher is incredibly patient and kind, always taking time to explain everything clearly, sometimes several times, which is so important for us beginners. She uses real-life examples and encourages us to practice speaking, which helps us build confidence gradually. What makes my experience unique is that I’m learning alongside other au pairs who share similar experiences of living in China. This creates a friendly, supportive environment where we can learn together and motivate each other both in and outside the classroom. For anyone considering joining SN Mandarin, I’d highly recommend it! The school is well-organised, the teachers are professional and caring, and the lessons offer a great balance of grammar, speaking, and cultural understanding. It’s the perfect place to start your Chinese learning journey, especially if you’re new to the language or living in China for the first time.
