Inside a lesson
See what a real
session looks like.
Max 3 students per group. Live lessons every weekday. Real topics, real Chinese. From complete beginner to advanced.
You know zero Chinese. By the end you'll have your first real conversations — and your tones will be right from the start.
You know the basics. Now we build fluency — more vocabulary, more natural sentence flow, more real conversation.
You can hold basic conversations. Time to sound more natural, handle more complex topics, and bridge the gap to real fluency.
You're past the basics. This is where Chinese starts to feel real — abstract topics, opinions, stories. The level where fluency actually begins.
You can already have real conversations. Now we polish — fluency, naturalness, cultural nuance, and the Chinese that native speakers actually use.
Three times a week you get a new short video lesson introducing vocabulary, grammar, and dialogues on the week's topic. You learn at your own pace, in your own time — no lecture, no passive listening.
Twice a week you join a live 30-minute session with your group of max 3 students and your teacher. This is where you practice everything you learned. Real conversation, real feedback — every session.
Every day you write a few sentences related to the week's topic. Your teacher reviews and corrects your writing daily. This is how you build accuracy fast — not by drilling rules, but by using the language.
Each week has a theme — conflict, food, work, relationships, travel. Every word and grammar structure is taught in the context of that topic. That's why our students actually remember what they learn.
Each week we explore a real-life topic — not a page of a textbook. Here are some of the topics our students have covered:
14+ years experience, over 1,500 students. Warm, structured and deeply knowledgeable — makes hard things feel manageable.
Patient, reactive and encouraging. Guides students to the answer rather than just giving it — every student feels genuinely understood.
Calm, culturally rich. Studied in Germany, now in Ireland — connects especially well with European students.
Master's in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. Precise, thorough and passionate about accuracy.
"Every week we have grammar, words, listening and speaking — all the aspects needed. The topics mean we discuss real life scenarios and know what to say in different situations."
"I've been studying Mandarin for 8 years and I've improved my phonetics and tones a lot. The most practical and fun way I found to improve and study every day."
"Learning Chinese is not easy. There are two schools of thought: learning from a native speaker, or from someone who understands the difficulties. Moonlight Mandarin combined both."
