I studied with Caitlyn and we finished HSK 2, 3 & 4 in 4 months. Caitlyn is definitely the funniest teacher I have ever had who always knows when to take a break and when to push on a bit. She can always see what my main weaknesses were, and made sure to focus on those. Through all my lessons Caitlyn always knew what words I kept forgetting, what grammar I had trouble with, and importantly how to keep me excited and focused.

Every lesson is very useful and interesting. Teacher Sherry is perfect in explaining grammar and vocabulary, so my progress in Chinese is quite significant. Teacher Sherry is always well prepared for the class , never late and very enthusiastic.

I started learning Chinese with Jamin in November 2020. Before that, I had lessons in other school but I wasn't satisfied and my friend recommended me Mandarin Mates. Jamin impressed me from the first lesson and we started our interesting way to Chinese language world. I really feel so much self confident in my Chinese language which helps me a lot at my work.

Thanks to Mia's patience (me forgetting most of the words from previous studies) as well as the customised topics based on my interests, in 2 months' time, I became a confident speaker. The best part of learning with her is that she is not only my teacher but also a 真正的朋友.

I have learned with Eva through HSK 2 and most of HSK 3. She is a not only a good teacher but also a friend. Her good sense of humour makes the lessons fun as well as informative. I look forward to my lessons every week. All jokes aside joining Mandarin Mates was a great decision and I have recommended Eva to many friends.

My Chinese teacher is Eva - she is a cute, lively teacher with very professional teaching skills. I believe these classes really helped me become more confident in myself, being less scared to talk with locals, as well as improving my grammar and my vocabulary.

I have been studying HSK 3 and 4 with Caitlyn for almost a year. The time spent with Caitlyn has been invaluable, positive, fun and very educational. Caitlyn constantly adjusted the pace and difficulties of our class to my needs. She always ensure the method and exercise used were helpful to improve my comprehension.

Sherry is patient with me if I miss an assignment from time-time, but she also knows that sometimes I need to be pushed, and is able to strike this balance with poise and professionalism. My favorite part of class is when we just happen on a good conversation topic and we just talk about life for 10 or 15 minutes. She helps me expand my vocabulary and correct my grammar as we go, but it just feels like a conversation with a good friend. Thank you, Sherry!

Studying with Mandarin Mates has been one of the best decisions I've made over the course of studying Chinese. Jamin's a great teacher and a good friend who has shared a lot of laughs with me, as well as helping smooth out the cracks in my Chinese, and helping me reach the next level. 10/10 would recommend!

With Mia’s help, I was able to earn an HSK4 certificate after 6 months of study. I enjoy going off topic from the book material at times to just practice speaking. Mia is enthusiastic, patient, and positive. I always look forward to getting a break from day-to-day mundane work-related stuff to learn Chinese with Mia.
