Megan's feedback about Jun (Beginner Mandarin tuition near Farnborough)

Jun is a wonderful tutor. She's very encouraging and knowledgeable and provides structured lessons pitched at the right level and at the right pace for me, whilst also allowing room for my myriad questions so I can develop my understanding outside of lesson content. She has a great sense of humour and is very reliable. I look forward to our lessons every week.

Isabelle's feedback about Xiao (Beginner Mandarin tuition near Letchworth)

My daughter is really enjoying her lessons and seems to be coming along well with it, even after a short time.

Andrea's feedback about Lei (Intermediate Mandarin tuition near Bristol)

Lei is an amazing teacher. She is flexible, patient and kind. I have developed my Mandarin lots since I started lessons. I would highly recommend!

Shane's feedback about Jun (Beginner Mandarin tuition near Godalming)

Jun is a very patient, kind and supportive teacher. She is always happy to answer any questions, giving both cultural context and understanding key language and cultural differences between England and China - which, as a beginner, is more relevant than you might think! Jun has provided me with a thorough grounding in speaking Mandarin and writing Chinese characters, starting from scratch. We have weekly lessons at a fixed time, however, she is flexible when I cannot make it, even on short notice, which I greatly appreciate. We are currently aiming for me to acquire the HSK 1 qualification and are making good and steady progress towards doing so.

Liwen is an excellent teacher 1-1 and really takes the time to ensure you understand the key points, and not just go through the motions of a language lessons.
