Silk Mandarin's real-life online course makes you feel like you are actually in the classroom together with your teacher and, in case of group class, also together with your classmates.

Blended Learning- Online Class

I took the blended learning class online because I lived in another city and had a busy life schedule. Everything about this program was amazing. I felt heard. Amy took her time creating the perfect schedule for me so that attendance and study were attainable. I actually took both HSK 1 and HSK 2 with Silk Mandarin and both time felt supported. The class sizes are small enough that everyone can practice and the pace of the class is also good. My skill set has improved drastically. I honestly tell everyone I know about this program.

Pros
  • Staff support
  • Educational materials
  • pace
Cons
  • pricing but you get a lot

Great experience with Silk Mandarin

Earlier I learned HSK 1 from other language school but after joining Silk Mandarin my life is much easier in China. All my concepts are cleared now . I am more confident then before . Silk Mandarin has a unique method of teaching . As I am a online student I like the slow motion techniques more. I understand mandarin more in an easy way through slow motion technique. Apart from this technique I really like the teachers. The teachers are so professional and friendly also. They understand you and help to improving your skill of learning. I am very thankful to Silk Mandarin staff and teachers to give me a wonder full experience and motivated me more to learn HSK levels . Thank you so much .

Pros
  • Best teaching method
  • Professional teachers
  • Improving language
Cons
  • Fees is little higher

Mandarin learning

I´ve realized I should learn Mandarin after I decided to do business with Chinese people. I had no choice but to study online, so I started looking for a Chinese language school. Sooner I came across Silk Mandarin.
There I found a highly qualified team and unique teaching method. Its business development team was effective at organizing the class schedule due to my time zone difference. Teachers go an extra mile providing online tools to practice and additional materials to help me with characters and listening. In a brief time, I was already feeling comfortable with the new language.
I highly recommend Silk Mandarin for anyone seeking to learn or improve Mandarin in a fast and pleasant way.

Pros
  • Qualified teachers
  • Updated content
  • Acessible team

This course is great!

For a person like me, who doesn't have much free time, this course is perfect. It's once a week but lasts for 90minutes. A lots of material is covered in just one class and then it's self study that reinforces the learning. The videos on the teaching platform are very helpful and well designed in terms of duration and interactive content. The classes are fun and engaging and filled with interesting activities. I have nothing but great things to say about Silk Mandarin Training Institute. Keep up the good work!

My Silk Mandarin Learning Experience

This is my second online course ever and I would have to say I really enjoyed it. The teacher student interactions were great and I thought the course notebooks and ppt are very informative and supplemental to the studying. The pictures and graphs in the texts books really helped me get an idea of what I was studying. I think the simplicity of this course and the way they designed it online really work well to help students process the information and maintain it. The assignments in the beginning of the course seem relatively long, but I thought everything was very fair and the questions were well presented. I think your grading is very well done and I really enjoyed taking every moment of it!! This was an opportunity I was not given at my current four year university. Thanks again Hannah 老师!

Pros
  • Very active and friendly support team
  • Convenient schedules for lessons
  • The tutor profiles are checked and verified to ensure that you work with only the best tutors
Cons
  • You have to buy a package that entails hours, which is limited to one teacher
  • you learning goal is limited to your number of hours

Blended Learning

Silk Mandarin is a great choice and provided me with the support and encouragement I need to continue with my language learning. I enjoy the blended learning system, which fits into my schedule and provides multiple avenues for review, and the online classes are engaging and encouraging. If you're worried about learning Chinese, this a great way to start - the teachers are encouraging and patient and there is a support network from learning with other students of the same level. The online classes also means that you can be in a city and still attending weekly classes easily. The Teachable platform is user friendly and easily accessible for learning on the go.

Pros
  • Support Network
  • Blended Learning
  • Patient and encouraging teachers

Excellent Learning Toolkit

I’m very happy with the welcoming environment at Silk Mandarin. The teachers and staff are personable and always engaging. I have been taking the classes with my teacher for almost three months, twice a week and I am pleased with my improvement. Ms. Hannah has a knack for sparking interest by making the content relatable. Another great thing about the program is that it is completely customized and I’m grateful for their ability to seamlessly switch from offline to online at a moment’s notice.

My goal is to communicate smoothly and naturally and to immerge myself in Chinese and Silk Mandarin is without a doubt helping getting there.
