Jonquil
45 years“The school and shared apartments have a fantastic location - right in the centre of Shanghai, with the shared apartments literally just around the corner from the school (less than 2 minutes walk!. The apartments are comfortable, clean and well-equiped and are an excellent accommodation choice. The size of apartments varies, mine had 3 students each with a double room, large lounge, bathroom and kitchen - and reliable wireless internet (vital for me!). The school is well organised and has a real enthusiasm about it - lots of classrooms, students and friendly and helpful staff. There were enough students to have many different levels - helpful in finding the right level. Class sizes varied from 3-8 which was perfect for me. I'd certainly recommend Mandarin House and hope to study there again.”
