Written reviews

What students write
when nobody's watching.

★★★★★

"I haven't seen anything similar on the internet. The fact that you have Chinese teachers working for your startup — and not the other way around — I find it mind blowing. Non-native speakers CAN teach a foreign language they love, to students from all over the world. And the fact that you've made a startup with a completely new approach? I admire your courage and professionalism."

"Moonlight Mandarin is a magical place. It's not only about learning Chinese — it's about personal growth. Little adjustments in life lead to significant changes, and I experience that first hand here."

"After taking a break from Mandarin, I wanted a course to help me speak confidently again. I definitely recommend Moonlight Mandarin to anyone looking to overcome a learning plateau."

★★★★★

"I was in a small group with two other students at a similar level — learning was fun and interactive. Now I feel much more comfortable using Chinese in everyday situations and I'm excited to move on to higher HSK levels."

"I wasn't 100% prepared but could still follow — the content was really well prepared with such good questions. I like this lesson style."
