"All encompassing"

Will Peever

Before I came to China, I really had no idea what school to pick or what to expect. However I am extremely glad I picked LTL. They took care of everything from finding a home-stay that really fit my needs, to dealing with my sim card problems when I lost my phone. In Beijing, they have a small classroom and the students there immediately became my friends. During my first week there I was invited to go bar hopping in Guomao, clubbing in Sanlitun, and to watch an acrobatic show. The standard curriculum they follow really gives you a strong foundation and the teachers there know it by heart. The teachers themselves were great and patient, every teacher I had was really passionate and made things like learning characters extremely interesting. My only complaint would be in my group classes, sometimes LTL would throw students with a lower level into the group which slow the group down. However eventually this wasn't a problem as I stayed long enough that I became the only student left in my group class and it became cheap 1-1!

I also spent a few months in Chengde which was exactly as they made it out to be. My progress in Chengde was about double the speed it was in Beijing because it truly is immersive. The coordinator they have there (even though when I was there recently gave birth) works really hard to keep you busy with things and often invites you out. As all my classes were 1-1, my teachers became a really close friend. In my last week my teacher took me out to eat three times, and treated me to an experience in a Chinese bath house!

I loved my home-stays, both in Beijing and Chengde, though I did hear stories from other students that had a hard time adjusting to some cultural aspects. I personally think this is entirely based on how open your mind is!

Overall, China is a phenomenal country and LTL helps open the doors for you. I'm planning to go back to study with them in a few months.

"Great school to learn Chinese with foreign management"

Tanja Weiss

After studying Chinese at other schools and not being so happy with them anymore, I decided to try LTL in Beijing and I'm glad I did. The school's location in the CBD which is very convenient, the teachers were good and I especially appreciated that the owner of the school was present almost every day. The management consists of both Chinese and foreigners which made sure that they know your needs and can help you in case there is a problem. I especially enjoyed the social activities such as joint dinners. The only negative point is that the school offers no shared or private apartments close to the school.

Thanks so much for your review Tanja. We're really glad you found us! Most of our Shared Apartments are walking distance from the school, but during the busy summer period it is often necessary to place students a little further away. I hope you'll return to study with us again one day anyway, we'd love to see you again.

"Amazing fun, social community, accompanying intense and effective learning."

Jack Woods

Classes: I had individual classes for one week. I found the teaching method rather plain and repetitive, as we essentially went page by page, exercise by exercise through the textbook. However, I managed to learn a huge amount in my 20h of study, and I have no doubt that this method is consistent and effective over longer time periods.

Teachers: My teacher was demanding but friendly, and pushed me to use my Chinese, always ensuring I did things correctly.

Location: Relatively easy to get to via metro, in a nice area.

Facilities: Comfortable, cosy, ample for the number of students there.

Activities: Absolutely loved the daily communal lunches and Wednesday pub quiz night, and have heard of many more activities happening weekly that I am loath to miss out on.

Housing: N/A

Overall: The community aspect of LTL ended up being the biggest draw-card for me, and shouldn't be underestimated. In between classes every hour, lunchtimes, and all organised group activities outside of class time, is an opportunity to make friends with similar minded people all learning Chinese. It makes learning the language fun and motivating, and the school really becomes somewhere you want to be every day. While I found the teaching method rather dry, the amount I learned and the friends I made more than made up for the hours of hard work. Big thumbs up.

It was really great having you here Jack, even if it was sadly for such a short time. We all hope to see you back here at some point in the future :-) I'm glad you enjoyed the Pub Quiz!

"Wonderful experience"

Chiara zanutto

My name is Chiara and I studied Chinese in Milan for three months. I liked it so much that I decided to spend my summer holidays in Beijing.
I have done a lot of research on the internet before choosing the school that is right for me: I was interested to discover how life would be like in China, I wanted to improve my knowledge of the Chinese language and culture, and I also wanted to make new friends.
At first, I was torn between a private school and a Chinese university because of cost reasons, but after a long research, I opted for LTL Mandarin School.
And I could not have chosen better! I attended the course just for two weeks, but my general impression was excellent.
Unlike in a university where you study in very large classes, the school LTL allows you to study in small groups (and you can also choose to take one-to-one lessons). As a result, you can thoroughly and deeply study all the topics. In a short time, you form friendships with students from all over the world and of all ages. LTL also facilitates integration by organizing various social activities (welcome breakfasts, dinners, trips, etc).
I was very amazed by the excellent organization of the school, both before departure (I always received all the information I needed and the answers to my questions in a short time) and during my stay in Beijing. All the staff at the school are always available to support you in everything you need.
A person who comes to China for the first time and does not speak Chinese needs to feel safe in some way and with LTL one can definitely feel safe!
To immerse myself in Chinese culture, I chose to stay in a host family and I was very satisfied. They have treated me like a daughter, cooking all the local delicacies and showering me with attention. LTL selects families with extreme accuracy!
I can say that it has improved my knowledge of the language as I wanted because in my host family we speak only Chinese (but you can choose to go to a family that speaks English). And I made some good friends that I hope to stay in contact with in the future.
Surely will attend another course with LTL soon as I'll have the possibility and maybe will choose the combination of group and one-to-one lessons to further explore topics that interest me more.
I highly recommended LTL to everyone!

Thank you, Chiara, for such a wonderful review. I hope you enjoyed your travels around China after the course and we hope to see you here again one day! Best wishes from the LTL team :-)

"Two years later and I still miss it."

Fred Patel

Choosing to study at LTL was probably the single most important and best decision I made for my China trip. I had heard about the school from a friend back home and liked the quick way they replied to my emails, so I booked a two month Chinese course and homestay with them.
I got very lucky. The family I stayed with was a lot of fun to stay with. I hadn't studied much Chinese beforehand, so communication was not easy at first, but Mr. and Ms. Li were the best hosts I could have hoped for. In the two months I lived with them, I must have been to at least 10 family dinners, met countless of their relatives, went with them on three hiking trips, their niece's wedding, and ate what was probably the world's best food on a daily basis. Eating Chinese food at a restaurant has been a disappointment ever since, as none of them can compare with Ms. Li's cooking. We are still in touch and I hope they will come and visit me in the states next year.
The Chinese course at LTL was intensive and very professional. My two teachers, were both very professional and patient, which made classes both fun and effective. I learned a lot more Chinese in those two months than I thought I could have due to the combination of living with a Chinese family and intensive classes. I was very pleased with my progress.
The LTL team is very nice and friendly and provided me with a lot of support with any practical issues I had regarding living in China. I also met a lot of very interesting other international students at the school, some of which I am still in touch with today and I am very greateful for.
Overall, my stay with LTL was highly satisfactory.
