    Additional Programs

    Shanghai Safari

    Fancy something different? Enjoy getting out the classroom?

    That’s exactly why we’ve created the Shanghai Safari. There is no better way to learn Chinese in China than in real life situations. Go shopping, enjoy ordering food or use public transport. You’ll learn and use day to day essentials in the Shanghai Safari.

    You will be accompanied by a certified Mandarin teacher who will teach you the vocabulary you need. You will then receive feedback and before you know it you’ll be using Mandarin on the streets everywhere you go.

    These programs are upgrades and can only be purchased on top of an Individual Chinese course.

    • Warm Up – Before setting off on the adventure you will be briefed by your teacher. You will study Chinese vocabulary and structures to help you on the way.
    • Safari – We have 20 different Shanghai Safari’s for you to embark on that range from speaking to a property assistant about pricing of houses to asking a shop assistant where to find your favourite brand of clothing.
    • Cool Down – You will review the lesson with your teacher and see what you did well, and where you slightly went wrong. You will also be suggested alternative phrases you could use. Learning Mandarin is all about making mistakes so do not be afraid. Approach with confidence and enjoy the Safari.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Where will my lessons be?

    All your lessons will take place at our Chinese School in downtown Shanghai.

    The area is in the heart of Shanghai located right near the South Shaanxi Road Metro stop in Shanghai.

    I’m not sure if I should book group or 1-on-1?

    Group classes are general for students who are at a beginner or intermediate level.

    If your Chinese is of a higher level we’d put you straight into a 1 on 1 class. 

    Individual courses are also ideal for people who want their Mandarin to increase fast. If your budget doesn’t stretch so far it might be worth checking out our budget Chinese course.

    What can I do outside of the classroom to improve?

    Immersing yourself is very much down to the individual. There are a number of things we recommend to speed up your Chinese further.

    A homestay with a Shanghai family is probably the main thing we’d suggest. This is a great way to implement your Mandarin outside of class.

    We offer some great homestay families and 80% of our students actually use a Shanghai Homestay as their choice of accommodation. You can also check out our Chinese Immersion Programs for more details on Immersion and speedy Chinese progress.

    Can I study in other cities also?

    No problem. Check out our pricing calculator to put a program together.

    After that you can contact us for a more detailed look at your plan.

    The programs that probably suffice would be the multi city course or the gap year in China.

    How do you prepare my lesson plan?

    The assessment with our Director of Studies before your Mandarin course in China starts is important.

    We’ll be able to gauge your level of Chinese and work out a plan for you. We’ll also listen to you and what you aims and goals are. We discuss your plan with you and assign you the perfect teachers.

    This allows us to create an ideal Mandarin study plan so you get the most out of LTL when you come and study Chinese in China.

    Do I lose classes during Chinese holidays?

    You will never lose a class at LTL.

    If there is ever a Chinese holiday these classes will be made up or another teacher will step in to take over your lessons. These details can be discussed if need be.

    Can I learn Shanghainese too?

    We offer Shanghainese courses so absolutely, if you wish.

    If you want to find out more about Shanghainese visit our dedicated page or chat to our team in Shanghai.

    Do you offer Online courses too?

    Yes we do, you can utilise these before you come to China.

    Check out our Online Mandarin courses here.

    My experience here at LTL has been extremely rewarding.

    Never have I felt so connected with a teacher. Ellie, my speaking teacher, pushed me out of my comfort zone in order to expedite my Chinese learning.

    I’m grateful for her attention to detail and willingness to offer corrections.

    I can’t wait to come back next year and see what else I can learn. Thank you, Ellie!

    I first studied with LTL in 2012, in Beijing. My aunt’s friend is a travel agent and I found LTL through her.

     

    I enjoyed my time at LTL, but I was eager to try out a different city this time around. I’ve heard good things about Shanghai.

    When I arrived in Shanghai everything was smooth and easy, within two days I already knew where things were, and who to ask.

    I stayed in a homestay, the location was very convenient and my homestay mother was a very nice person. It was a very welcoming, and friendly atmosphere and I was told to just relax and feel at home. They were always willing to help me out with anything.

    Overall I had a great time at LTL, the social life was amazing, I always felt welcome, and Shanghai is just an amazing city.

    My classes were great. I loved how I would have conversations with the teacher at the start, and then we would learn and review words based on this conversation. All in all I had four different teachers and they were all great.

    The more you get to know them the easier the learning becomes. With 1 on 1 classes you really get to know your teachers which makes learning easier.

    I really learned a lot during my time at LTL.

    Anna was a fantastic teacher, so experienced, knowledgable and most importantly, patient.

    I learned so much from her every lesson and my only regret is that I wasn’t in a position to stay for longer.

    I stayed for three weeks and felt as though I made great progress in this time, but next time I would prefer to stay for longer to really get the benefits of immersion!

    I also enhanced my Chinese by staying with a homestay family. My host family were very friendly, polite and didn’t speak any English with me 🙂 .

    The apartment was clean and modern. Food was plentiful.

    No complaints here!

    Priscilla together with two of her teachers in classroom at LTL ShanghaiAlex was a great teacher and he was able to thoroughly explain the textbooks.

    I also enjoyed the discussions we had around the textbooks and about Chinese culture/society in general.

    Although he was around 10-15 minutes late for the first few classes, this became less of an issue after I brought it up with him.

    Overall, having Alex as my teacher was a good experience. 钟桃 was my second 1 on 1 teacher.

    She was always early for classes and I could tell that she had spent considerable time and thought on preparing for class. 桃子 was very kind, patient and very thorough.

    She ensured I understood the texts and would allow me to read the texts again for practice. I very much enjoyed our discussions and talks on the class topics, as well as additional issues I was interested in.

    I would 100% recommend 桃子 to other students.

    I originally studied in Beijing, but have been there for 3 times already, so I wanted to go to a different place.

    I haven’t been so much to Shanghai and I heard it’s an interesting place so I wanted to try it out. LTL could offer Individual classes, as well a flexible schedule and a Homestay, which were all important to me.

    I signed up for the “Discover Shanghai” upgrade, which was nice, especially if it’s your first time in Shanghai. We went to the Oriental Pearl Tower, Xintiandi, Nanjing East Road Shopping Area, The Yu Gardens, The City God Temple and The Bund.

    Before coming to China I didn’t like Chinese food, so I was nervous that I might not like the food of the Homestay family, but I found it was actually delicious. Best Chinese food I ever had!

    I had the Intensive Individual classes. I had really good teachers. Everyone was very patient and accommodated my learning.

    I want to come back to China to study even more Chinese, and maybe do an internship. We’ll see.
