About Mandalingo
Welcome to Mandalingo Chinese School, formerly known as Mandarin Education Services, where we've been offering Mandarin lessons since 2011. Originally founded by Qianyun Dangerfield a sole teacher, we have since expanded our team to include dedicated educators from London and Beijing. As an independent institution dedicated to providing authentic, enjoyable, and interactive Mandarin lessons for children, whether they come from Chinese or non-Chinese backgrounds, we're committed to making language learning a dynamic and immersive experience.
We offer both online and offline classes to suit your preferences and schedule.
While traditional methods of Mandarin instruction have their merits, we believe in making language learning a dynamic, immersive, and enjoyable experience, fostering effective and natural communication skills for everyday life.
Research has shown that early exposure to Chinese enhances brain development and pronunciation, given the tonal nature of Mandarin.
At Mandalingo, we prioritise laying a strong foundation for your child's language journey, with motivation as the cornerstone of our approach. Our lessons take place in engaging, immersive environments, utilising innovative and interactive teaching methods.
With motivated students, progression towards certifications such as YCT, HSK, or GCSE becomes seamless. Mandalingo is dedicated to supporting you and your children every step of the way on this enriching linguistic journey.

My son really enjoys his Mandarin lessons with Qian. Her classes are always tailored to his learning needs. Every lesson is a lively experience introducing specific vocabulary and grammar. Qian is patient, encouraging and has a great sense of humour.

Qian proved herself to be a dedicated, enthusiastic, hardworking, loyal and supportive colleague. She was an outstanding class teacher who was capable of getting work of a high standard from the children in her care. She was highly respected throughout the school by teachers, children and parents.
