Course Overview
Our Intensive Chinese courses are designed for learners who want to make fast and structured progress in Mandarin through daily classes with a strong focus on speaking practice.
Through this programme you systematically develop the language skills needed to communicate confidently in Mandarin in both everyday and professional situations.
In-Class Speaking Practice
Classes are highly interactive and centred around real-life communication. Since key vocabulary and grammar are introduced through our Blended Learning pre-study videos, lesson time can focus strongly on speaking practice and applying new language in real-life situations.
Teachers provide continuous feedback on your spoken Mandarin, helping you improve both accuracy and fluency while building confidence in
communication.

Part of the Daily Chinese Programme
Intensive Chinese courses are part of our Daily Chinese programme, a structured Mandarin curriculum built around the official HSK levels.
The programme combines systematic language development with intensive speaking practice in class, allowing students to progress step by step while building real communication skills.
Choose Your Intensive Programme
Both intensive tracks follow the same structured curriculum and teaching approach, with a strong focus on practical communication and speaking practice in class. The main difference lies in the number of daily lessons and the resulting learning intensity.
Intensive 30 (I30)
Intensive 30 (I30) is our flagship programme for learners who want the fastest possible progress. With six lessons per day, it maximises classroom time for speaking practice, teacher feedback, and systematic consolidation of new language.
Intensive 20 (I20)
Intensive 20 (I20) is designed for learners who want to make fast and consistent progress while keeping their afternoons free. With four lessons each morning, it provides intensive speaking practice, teacher guidance, and structured language development.
