We do not put a limit on how many lessons you can have a week, that is up to you. Our customers do come to us for advice, and in the best interest of your learning we recommend three to five lessons a week but we understand this may not be possible. Ultimately, you choose the time that suits you. You can also get advice from our teachers during a free trial.
Of course, you are our priority. You choose the time that best suits you.
Yes, you can have back-to-back classes. You can have as many lessons as you want as long as it’s within the limits of your package.
Are lessons are 25 minutes each. We believe this allows the most flexibility of students anytime, anywhere. This is also the optimal learning span for concentration, focus and absorption of what is learnt.
We appreciate that most of our customers prefer to keep the same teacher so our system allows you to match your time with our teachers. You can book with the same teacher if you find their available time acceptable. If you can’t find a suitable time for yourself with your preferred teacher then we do have a choice of great teachers.
All our teaching material features simplified characters. At the moment we do not teach traditional Chinese characters.
There are many factors that come into play regarding the length of time it takes for you to become fluent in Chinese. It depends on how hard you work, your motivation, and how much time you spend on your Chinese. If you want some advice you can consult our professional teachers in the free trial lesson.
Each of our courses are different. Some have different levels and others are more topical but we can guarantee one thing, our range of courses cater to all levels, whether you are a beginner or an expert in Chinese. You can find out more about our levels on our ‘Courses’ page.
Yes, of course. We want to make your learning experience as rewarding as possible, and a certificate is one of the ways in which we want to show your progress and achievement with us.

Unfortunately we cannot give you access to our PPT slides outside of class time, that is why we do give you homework, review and preview material to enhance your learning experience with us.
To protect our teacher’s privacy we do not allow our students to have our teacher’s personal contact details.
We do quality control checks on your classes. After each class you take, you will have access to a form where you can provide us feedback because we want to improve and give you a high quality learning experience.
