After a successful teaching experience at SFL, I would like to share my experience as student within this school.
I studied there almost half a year and I have to say it changed a lot from other not very professional situation. Although the school is small (quickly getting bigger) and starting since September, it is definitely to be recommended.
First of all the teacher is well qualified and speaks a good Mandarin. The progression is well balanced and not to heavy so we progress at a slow and good pace. But the thing I enjoyed the most was the use of the new technologies. A big video screen served to the weakly lessons in order to study the new "hanzi", the vocabulary as well as some contextual dialogue for the grammar. And most of all, I had the chance when I could not attend physically to the class to do distance learning. I was in Hong-Kong and I did the class on line with my teacher in Kunming ! We used skype and the white board. It was a new attractive way to study the "hanzi" and Chinese !
Has anyone experienced distance learning by studying Chinese ? Which tools did you use?
