A month full of fun and learning ☀️
Busy planning your October holiday break?
Wait — let's take a quick look back at everything we did in September!
What a month 💛
Movie Night
Have you reached the stage in your learning where you can start watching movies in Chinese?
Our students in Beijing and Shanghai just gave it a go!
Good company, popcorn, and lively post-movie discussions - a 牛 (niú) way to spend an evening 🍿✨
Bilingual Corner
Let's take it futher: how about holding longer discussions about the things you're interested in?
Our students in Chengdu did just that 💬
Nothing can beat a meaningful, real-life conversation with native speakers.
And it's always a joy to see our students use 中文 (Zhōngwén) to build new friendships 💛
Celebrating
七夕节 Together
At Suzhou campus, students gor a deeper taste of Chinese culture and celebrated 七夕节 (Qīxī Jié) - also known as the Qixi Festival or Chinese Valentine's Day - by making beautiful handcrafted flowers together.
七夕节 | The Story Behind Qixi Festival
The 'Coffee Shop' Mission
Being able to order your favourite drink in Chinese is a must-have skill in the 21st century!
We take these missions seriously ☕️
Every other Friday, our Intensive Course students take their Chinese to the streets.
This time, our Beijing students completed their quest with flying colors — and even got to chat with the staff.
Singing in 中文
Another essential skill?
Knowing at least one Chinese song to impress your friends and colleagues.
(Trust us — the day will come!)
Together with our students, we sang, laughed, and turned our Shanghai campus into a KTV room 🕺🏻🪩
Mahjong, Mahjong
If you've been studying with That's Mandarin for a while, chances are you're already 吃 (chī)-ing, 碰 (pèng)-ing and 杠(gàng)-ing like a pro.
If not yet - what are you waiting for?!
Join our next Mahjong night and start 胡(hú)-ing 😎🀄️
Baduanjin,
or Ancient Qigong
Finally, the highlight of our last week in Shanghai was flowing together with the ancient practice of 八段锦 (Bāduànjǐn).
A truly mindful way to wrap up the month ✨
What's Next?
At That's Mandarin, we believe language learning goes far beyond the classroom. From real-world experiences to cultural immersion, our Intensive Course helps students connect with Chinese on a deeper, more personal level.

We can't wait to organize more exciting cultural and language activities.
See you at the next one!
