Testimonials

The experience here has been amazing. The teachers, the staff, the environment. I love how it feels like a family and you don’t feel judged. I have learned so much and made lifelong friends.

The school is located near the city center, so it is convenient to do sightseeing after class! LTL organises 3-4 activities every week, from Tai Chi class, visiting Tian’anmen Square or a dumpling making class.

I spent 3 weeks learning Chinese at LTL in Beijing. I learned a lot in this short amount of time! My teacher was supportive and patient, we were encouraged to speak as much as possible.

1-1 class was super fun and I made so much progress. My homestay was amazing too. I lived with an auntie who cooked the best food every day and only spoke to me in Chinese.

At LTL Beijing, the classes are in small groups, which gives you a personalized approach, the staff is super friendly and professional. They organize activities outside the school to be immerse in the culture.

I spent 8 weeks at LTL Beijing and it was an amazing experience! The teaching was effective and engaging. Rather using rote memorisation to learn words and grammar points, we were taught words in context.

One of the most valuable aspects of my experience at LTL was the friendships I made. The school attracts students from all over the world, and we bonded over our shared experiences and triumphs in learning Chinese.

I spent two weeks in Beijing and I felt like my limited proficiency in Chinese made much more improvement with them there compared to my months of self-study online, largely owing to LTL’s small classroom environment.

Teachers are totally qualified and students here are also eager to learn Mandarin. Staffs and teachers here are so kind and always trying to help, which made me feel like I made another family here.
