Customized Mandarin Course

While we build the syllabus based on our own standard textbooks, we recognize that every student is unique, and as such study material will be personally selected (and updated) for each student by their professional teachers. The selection is based on each student’s specific needs, interests and progress.

Unlike traditional online video and audio classes, our online study program stresses constant interaction as the key to rapid progress. Each learner keeps close contact with their personal teacher, and practice partners, to ensure not only that they have understood each new lesson but also to ensure that they can combine their new and existing knowledge effectively. Students can talk directly to their teachers to get personal instruction anytime. Our teaching team will also measure student’s progress through regular homework exercises, and standardized tests, which are marked and sent back to students.

While study is at each students’ convenience, students are also enrolled in an online class based on both their timezone and knowledge level. Students can freely chat with other class members to share examples, and insights, for the benefit of their whole class.

Although our online study program empowers students to study at their own pace, towards their own specific objectives, we maintain that, based on students’ feedback, all programs are carefully monitored, including the use of standardized tests at key milestones.

We believe in the use of our own standardised tests to allow students to measure their progress. However, we also encourage students to apply for Mandarin proficiency exams that are organized by the Chinese government, or their home countries. For example, the HSK is the Chinese officially approved Mandarin examination accepted as an indicator of proficiency by Chinese (and global) universities and multinational companies. Some nations have set up their own Mandarin proficiency exams, like the AP test in US and the Mandarin GCSE in the UK. With our help, our students can usually quickly achieve the necessary level of proficiency to pass the exam of interest, as in addition to our excellent academic teaching, we are able to provide extra emphasis on exam technique to speed up preparation effectiveness.
