"It was really god"

Stanislav Bakhtin, student from Russia

The teachers were polite and helpful. The lessons aren’t boring, teachers explain all with examples from day life . My Chinese now a long more better because of Capital Mandarin. In school I felt me as a home. Kevin always can help you. Classmates really good and they are from different countries. That’s cool.

"Two amazing weeks"

Mikalai Paulau, student from Belarus

It was my first trip to China, I was ready to face any inconvenience, but everything was just amazing. Teachers and staff are very helpfull. I spent two weeks in Beijing, first I couldn't pronounce any word in Chinese correctly, but at the end of this trip I was brave enough to rely on my Chinese to order taxi to airport by myself. I also could support some simple conversation with taxi driver. I lived in hotel where staff can't speak English, also in my district I must practice Chinese everyday by ordering some random food and shoping.

Teachers from Capital Mandarin helped me to understand many specific point in Chinese language, so I really appreciate their attention and looking forward to seeing them again.

"CMS was a great learning experience that proved essential to my study of Mandarin."

Sol Chase, student from USA

My private tutor was fantastic. She worked at my level and taught based on what I wished to learn. I have taken Many Chinese classes before, and none have been as helpful. We moved through the lessons very quickly, and I feel I was able to grasp most, of not all of the the content the first time through. The school was neat, clean, and included free tea, which was a great plus! All of the administrators were kind and helpful, and I really felt welcomed by everyone there.

"Fantastic school and also nice teacher"

敏儀 / Manyee 吳 / Ng, student from Hong Kong

It was nice to study in the Capital Mandarin School. I would say I was a little bit upset for just staying there for 1 week. I really recommend this school to those people who would like to improve their mandarin skills. Mr. Wang (my teacher) helped me a lot with the pinyin problem and I found it nice to attend the classes.
