I've had a great experience with Silk Mandarin. I've been with them for about a year have felt really well supported throughout the whole challenge of learning Chinese. Would highly recommend this service to anyone looking to learn Mandarin!

September 01, 2025by: Songül Akcin - TurkeyProgram: Silk Mandarin's Online Chinese Course

Taking online lessons with Silk Mandarin has been a very positive experience. My teacher, Nina, always prepares the classes well and explains everything clearly. Her teaching style makes learning enjoyable and helps me stay motivated. I can already see my progress in Chinese, step by step.
