YOUR COMMUNITY TO LEARN CHINESE
Mandarin Community is founded on a set of principles that include doing the right thing and treating everyone with respect.
We offer a wider variety of Chinese classes than you usually find at a Mandarin school and organize lectures on relevant life skills such as how to find a job in China or how to set up a business.
We also host fun events such as movie nights and book clubs. Every year, we also plan to organize more volunteer events so our community can make a stronger positive impact in Shanghai! We have a WeChat group where members share information relevant to expat living, ask questions about China, Chinese language, and culture.
We are community-oriented!
