Students' Voice

"Shanghai is just that place you never would have imagined until you get here. Its HUGE in all senses! Two thumbs Up! To study Mandarin is so fascinating, it seems super difficult but my teachers make it look so easy that, when you start speaking it feels so great! Then you think: I am so smart!."

"In-Mandarin has proven to be a very good choice for me. Having small classes is very effective;students receive close follow-up from the teachers and receive support when it's needed. The teachers here are dedicated and professional. Learning mandarin is hard, but they make it fun and interesting."

I really enjoyed this class because our teacher was very helpful and good at teaching the material. While it was a perfect speed for me, I think there were some people in the class who should have been moved to a higher or lower level. Overall this was a great experience and my Lao Shi really helped me improve my chinese skills.

Teacher Zhang is the best chinese teacher I have ever had. Her teaching style is perfect, as she is patient, stresses review, and challenges in the class to exercise their oral chinese skills by using innovative and fun technics like storytelling and game playing. She must be commended for her superior teaching skills, as well as her friendly attitude and willingness to help her students with not only chinese, but also life in Shanghai. She is the best!

Give an oral exam as well as the written exam to test the students' language skills. Working in class sizes of 4 people or less is an easier way to learn because the course can be tailored to the students' needs.

Having a smaller class is much more effective than having more students. Miss Zhang is a very good teacher.

Chinese New Year Party at Inmandarin China Chinese school in Shanghai

Learning chinese is not only learn Chinese languae, but also learn Chinese Cultue and Custom. In-Mandarin Chinese School in Shanhgai organized a Chinese New Year Party on Monday, Jan. 19th. 30 students took part in with some of our teachers here to celebrate our Chinese New Year together.

We created a funny afternoon party together with many games, such as Paper-cutting, Spring Festival Couplets writing, Dumpling making, Characters games as well as a Chinese traditional cloth experience! This Chinese new year will be the first experience for almost all of our students and the Chinese culture activities on the party also fresh to them.

Many girls and boys learnt the paper-cutting, which needs a lot of patience and carefulness, and it is amazing that even some boys did very good job, so we believe that they can also do very well on  learnning Chinese which requires the same characteristics.

Students also had opportunities to learn the Chinese calligraphy and we had quite professional   calligraphy teacher  writing spring festival couplets, which is also fresh to them.

At the Chinese character games section, the students are devided to two teams: "Hongniu (Red Cow)" team and "Jinniu (Golden Cow)" team, they compete with each other to guess the Chinese words from the other student's body language or explanation. This game not only helped them to practice Chinese but also train their teamwork abilities, so everyone worked hard on it. By the end, the "Jinniu (Golden Cow)" team wins and they had big prize, of course we also prepare some other prize for all the rest students.

The Chinese traditional costumes part is quite interesting, we have Hanfu supplier bringing many Hanfu and our students tried on them, they learnt the history of Hanfu and also felt it, they looked exciting about this culture and this experience.

The last part - Dumpling wrapping is quite funny to everybody, for some of them this was the first experience and almost all of them like eating Dumplings, especially when they enjoyed their own works they were quite exciting. 

The party lasted for about 3 hours, and on this party, students also made new friends with more students, so they felt quite satisfied and happily to join in. We also glad that we organized a very successful party for the students to feel real China.
