I truly enjoyed meeting with Nicole. She was very willing to tailor my sessions to my needs and goals, and was thorough in correcting my pronunciation and characters. I look forward to continuing to work on my Chinese with Nicole!
Timothy N.

1 Chinese lesson

I found Sue to be very professional, personable, and attentive. It appeared that Sue was already forming a plan of study for me. In addition, Sue suggested that I communicate in Chinese from now on which in turn pushes me into finding new words to study and the correct grammar to follow. Sue has been in the workplace as a front end manager and would be a perfect fit for the professional attempting to learn Mandarin Chinese in a business setting.
Cheryl Q.

21 Chinese lessons

My 13 year old son has started taking Chinese lessons with Helen and is really enjoying it. We had warned him that learning Chinese would be difficult (he has no prior experience with the language), but I am surprised at how much he's picked up after only two lessons and he said that he's having fun! Helen is prepared and covers a lot in their one hour sessions, so we are very pleased.
