Student Testimonials

I would like to thank Nicole very much. She is a great teacher, always with a smile on her face. Also thank Shelly, Manna and Xinxin, you are also good teachers. It\'s my first time here in China, Shanghai, and I\'m glad to have found such a great school. Nick the manager on the Pudong campus was always there for me, if I had a question or needed help. And even with my classmates, I was very lucky. Unfortunately, I have now returned to Germany, because I am leaving not only a great school, also new friends.\r\nMany thanks to all of you for the great time that you have given me and also thank you that I was able to learn the chinese language so simple.

I was enrolled at Miracle Mandarin Pudong campus for just three months, and I feel as though I\'ve had a years worth of study! I\'ve learned so much in such a short time and have greatly enjoyed every moment. I was most impressed with the caring and friendly staff who make an effort to help you in the class room and beyond! I\'ve made great friends and memories during my time at this fantastic school and I will take them with me into the future. \r\n\r\nThanks Miracle Mandarin!

I would like to thank you, Lijie, for your excellent teaching and ability to explain things so well in English. I would like to thank you, Shen Laoshi(Shen Xiang Meng), for your confidence in my characters and forcing me to use characters in Speaking 3, which although was difficult, I really enjoyed. I will definitely continue my Mandarin studies in Hong Kong, because you have taught me so well and I really love learning your language.

I just finished my second course at Miracle Mandarin and I must say even though the miracle has not made its appearance yet, I can feel it is somewhere close - just about to show up. My dear teachers Gu Yijun, Gao Yue, Zhang Ting and Qian Ya li have been amazing so far. Very patient and sooooo friendly. After making more than one approach to Chinese previously, I must say at Miracle Mandarin I finally found something useful!

My plan was to be able to do HSK 3 after 6 month, but now it turned out I was able to pass HSK 4. I was really surprised about my very fast progress and really thankful for the good teachers at MiracleMandarin.

Why do I need Miracle Mandarin? Let me break it down for you: 1.Superb Visa and residence permit assistance – Always the bane of any foreigners stay in China. 2.Convenient locations throughout Shanghai – Especially the FuXing Rd campus. 3.Comfortable class sizes –Which enable suitable discussion to develop, but not so big that you feel like you don’t get a chance to practice your new language. (I have never had more than 8 people in a class) 4.Warm, happy, smiling people – Both staff and teachers who actually enjoy working with foreigners, and who also understand that sometimes we think a little bit differently! 5.Modern clean classrooms and facilities – With table layouts enabling easy conversation. (Also a very tasty hot chocolate machine, that I think makes me a little sleepy!) 6.Great language partner coordination – MM is happy to connect you with a local Chinese student who wants to do a language exchange, giving you the chance to actually use the words that you learnt that day! 7.AWESOME TEACHERS – Who although like to keep you on your toes, are always happy to revisit a topic that you might be a little confused about. I have been studying at MM since September 08 and all of my friends, especially my Chinese friends, have all commented on how far my Chinese has come in this short time. I know I have a long way to go to really be fluent, but I know that MM can help me get there! Below is my translation attempt at the above text after 6 months of study with MM…if you think its ok, then come and join in the fun!

At MM, the teachers genuinely seem to enjoy their students. This relationship, which often becomes a first friendship in China helps motivate students to learning. For a long time, I will remember the time I was invited to Karaoke by my teacher, the time another teacher lent me a Chinese DVD or the time the whole class hung out at a coffee shop. In fact, soon after starting the first semester, our teacher even took us to a neigborhood grocery for some survival tips. Besides the teachers, I appreciate how seriously management takes my feedback and how attentive the course advisors are, always placing me in an appropriate level, month after month. The courses, tailored to the type of student (part-time / full-time intensive / business Chinese / HSK exam Chinese..) allow for you to learn with people who have the same motivation as you do.

I have been extremely satisfied with both the quality of the teachers as well as the class content itself. The atmosphere is intimate and intense, but not intimidating. Classes are set up in a horseshoe style which is conducive to conversation and full participation. Also, a huge benefit is the reasonable prices and the fact they could offer me a Student Visa. I have loved my time of this school.

(This is translated from her recommendation letter in Chinese). The classmates are serious learners and very motivated. The teacher is humorous, energetic, and smart in making difficult questions simpler.

Having studied 4 months with Miracle Mandarin, I can really recommend their courses. My progress was rapid. And now it’s so much simpler going about everyday life, as I am now able to communicate effectively. I also recommend you learn the characters, as this also helped with my comprehension.

I made fast progress in Chinese, thanks to my teacher…

Our teachers are very humorous, although I am a student from Canada, but I feel no stranger, my classmates gave me a great help in my learning.Therefore, do not worry, if you want depth understanding of China, "to participate in learning Chinese.

I am a student from Australia, I study here a month and found that progress a lot, so I suggest you to try to learn from here can give you a lot of progress!
