Conversational Mandarin Classes Singapore FAQ

How many students in a Conversational Mandarin class?

To make sure you have the opportunity to speak, all group classes at LTL are kept small.

On average, a group class is 2.85 people with a guaranteed maximum of six students per class.

How can I pay for my Chinese course?

After your course is arranged, we will send you an invoice with payment instructions for a bank transfer within Singapore.

How can I learn Chinese characters later?

Once you’re at a comfortable level of conversational Chinese, it’s a good idea also to learn how the Chinese writing system works.

We offer specialised 1-on-1 courses to help you take the next step into reading and writing the Chinese language.

How do I sign up for a spoken only Chinese course?

Please send us a message via our contact form and let us know you’re interested in conversation Chinese.

We’ll organise everything else from there!

You will get a reply within 24 hours, most likely in a few hours. We might be a bit slower than usual on weekends, night and public holidays.

How long does it take to be able to speak Chinese?

A safe estimate for a complete beginner is around 30 hours to learn the basics required to get around China (relatively hassle-free), 60 hours for basic conversations and about 200 hours for all daily life conversations.

Which study materials do you use? 

For our Conversational Chinese program, we use Short-term Spoken Chinese series by Peking University Press.

However, with your free assessment, we might select another text more suited to your goals.
