About our Chinese classes
Mandarin asks two things at once: a tonal system that changes meaning, and a character set that has no alphabet to fall back on. Rushing either one is why most self-taught learners stall. We teach tones from the first session and introduce characters at a pace that actually sticks.
Coursework follows the HSK ladder from HSK 1 to HSK 3, the standard recognised by Chinese universities and employers. Classes are online, 1:1 or small-batch.
We encourage flexible learning, providing 1:1 sessions and small batches that fits your schedule.
Chinese classes — common questions
- Which Chinese levels do you teach?
- HSK 1, HSK 2 and HSK 3.
- Do I need to learn characters, or is pinyin enough?
- Pinyin gets you speaking; characters get you reading. We teach both together, because learners who postpone characters usually have to restart later.
- Are the tones as hard as people say?
- They are unfamiliar rather than hard, and they are much easier to learn correctly from the start than to fix after a year of ignoring them.
- Can I start Chinese with no background at all?
- No prior knowledge is needed. Complete beginners start at the first level and we place returning learners after a short conversation, so you begin where you actually are rather than where a syllabus assumes you are.
