Are you thinking about learning Chinese but unsure where to start? Chinese may not be the easiest language to learn, but there are simple, enjoyable and engaging ways to learn it effectively.
Building a Strong Mandarin Foundation
Non-native students usually don’t get as much exposure to Mandarin as native speakers. So, building a solid language foundation is important for progressing successfully in your Mandarin journey. Just like other languages, Mandarin has four pillars of learning – Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking. To become fluent in Mandarin, students need a well-rounded Mandarin education covering all these areas.
How Our Students Learn Mandarin
We have developed a unique approach to teaching Mandarin method. We build students’ Mandarin skills step-by-step. Our approach ensures smooth progress, often without students even realising how quickly they’re progressing. Here’s how we do it:
1. Tailored Classes for Every Age Group
At Happy Mandarin, classes are specially designed according to the students’ age as per their learning needs. For very young children, we focus on learning through play and develop custom tools specially for them. For pre-teens, teenagers, and older students, we provide upgrade their learning experience with fun, dynamic and engaging classroom learning to develop their character reading, pronunciation, writing, speaking, and understanding skills. This helps students communicate effectively in Mandarin. Working professionals, on the other hand, usually prefer improving their conversational skills through Pinyin (Chinese written in English letters), enabling them to quickly progress in a work environment where Mandarin is essential.
2. Simplifying the Learning Process
Let’s be honest, Mandarin writing is complicated because characters have to be memorised. But we not only simplify this into manageable steps but also make it fun. We gradually build on during classes. For school-age students, we focus on grammar, vocabulary, and sentence patterns. Before they know it, students can confidently communicate in characters, phrases, and vocabulary suited for their learning level.
3. Regular Mandarin Practice for Success
At Happy Mandarin, we believe consistent practice is key. Our dedicated teachers include speaking, listening, and writing exercises in class lessons and homework to support their students’ progress.
Whether you want to learn Chinese for personal growth, professional success, academic goals, travel or to explore Chinese culture, our uniquely structured beginner-friendly courses will help you become effective Mandarin communicators.
