우리 아이가 잘 적응할 수 있도록 도와주신 원장님과 아리따운 선생님들께 먼저 감사드립니다. 새롭게 단장한 모습이 너무 마음에 들고 중국어를 더 쉽고 재밌게 배울 수 있는 모든 어린이들의 배움터로 발돋움할 수 있기를 기원합니다.
彦妤 had no interest in Mandarin language until she joined Busy Bees about 2 years ago. The programmes structures have impressively drawn her interest toward Mandarin language. My daughter progressed very well in speaking and reading in Mandarin. thumbs up Busy Bees.
We are loving the programme and the teachers are super duper supportive. And cant wait for the next class. It is so nice to be able to learn new language and it is super fun.
Appreciate up-to-date weekly updates on Hao YI's progress. Thank you for your patience esp trying to engage Hao Yi via online class. It is challenging for him to stay focused even more so online.

My 10 year old has been attending online classes for about 3 years. It is a class size of 4 and for a duration of 40 minutes, twice a week. Teacher Ang has done a fantastic job in keeping the children engaged and focused throughout the course. In terms of learning, I am happy with what has been achieved in spoken and written ability. Thank you Mandarin Pie.
凯文非常喜欢来上华语课。他很喜欢这里的老师，老师们非常的亲切。他已经上了半年的课，对中文不再反感，而且更愿意开口说中文，慢慢开始看到进展速度加快。谢谢你们有耐心和毅力的教导他和对他说中文。
My husband and I speak basic Mandarin and can write our names, but we're otherwise Chinese illiterate. We want our son Johnathan to learn Chinese better than us, though not necessarily like a native speaker. We do not wholly agree with Chinese vernacular schools and seek fun, interactive learning instead. We found Busy Bees (now Mandarin Pie), which seemed ideal.
After one month and eight classes, Johnathan knows 14 words. His Chinese stroke writing has greatly improved. We're pleased with his progress and grateful to the patient, sincere teachers. We look forward to continuing with Mandarin Pie.
Good interaction beteeen teachers and students, fun environment that encourages learnings
Overall, I am quite happy with Breanna's progress so far given that she does not have much Mandarin exposure outside of class. Also, I appreciate that the teacher's are able to engage Breanna based on her interests such as singing or dancing in class and are patient with her especially when she is not behaving well in class. I also appreciate that the materials for each week are shared in Google classroom so that parents are aware of what is being taught.
Qian Wen started Mandarin PIE back in 2017. We do speak Mandarin at home but she just refuses to use Mandarin. After months of attending classes at Mandarin PIE, she started to talk to us in Mandarin. Am so happy that the classes gave her confidence in using Mandarin. She actually rejected to attend the class, however with the patience and guidance of the teachers here, she started to love coming to class. We do hope to see her improve and growth together with Mandarin PIE 🙂
Tanner joined Mandarin PIE in 2017. we speak in English at home all the time. He knows nothing about Mandarin. Neither do I. For the first few weeks he refused to come to the class as he didn't understand a word of Mandarin. But because of Mandarin PIE encouraged pupils to sing and dance with Chinese songs, it makes him enjoy the class more and more... Mandarin PIE teaching principles are well suited for all kids especially young kids who love playing. He learned through play with teachers and assistants who are really attentive to all kids. I am totally impressed with Mandarin PIE and I would highly recommend to parents who are looking for Chinese class for their children.
He is keen to learn flashcards and can recognize a lot more words now. We are happy with his progress so far.
先生がとてもフレンドリーで娘も楽しく通っています。ローカルの友達とも中国語で遊べるようになり、ペナンでの生活をより楽しめるようになりました。今インターにかよっているのですが、どうも英語よりも中国語に方が得意なようです。いつも楽しい授業をしていただける先生方のおかげです。ありがとうございます。これからもよろしくお願いします。謝謝 真緒's 母
Haarineesh started to learn Mandarin when he was 3 years old. He has no idea what is Mandarin and so do I! Progressively, he has learnt and able to communicate very well as though this language is for him. It has been 3 years, Haarineesh is here, learning more. We believe more to go and more to come for him to master this beautiful and demanding language. I would like to thank Teacher Kimmy and other teachers who have seen him growing throughout his journey in Mandarin Pie. Thank you for making the learning process very fun that every time initiates Haarineesh to always come back here. THANK YOU!
我的女儿来这里有半年了，有了十分明显的进步。令我吃惊的是她又快又认识了许多单词。十分感谢每个老师为此所做的工作。
Very thankful to Teacher Chen, Teacher Sharon, Teacher Fiona and Teacher Chloe. My daughter is improving a lot in her Mandarin. She can understand Mandarin conversations better compared to last time. She can understand her school work of Mandarin better . She’s even learning to talk to her grandmother in Mandarin.
I found Mandarin Pie after searching for a suitable Mandarin class. They offered a free trial, and we loved it. As an early childhood educator, I had high expectations, which were exceeded by their engaging use of songs, movement, and games. My son loves the classes and requested more sessions. In just four months, his progress has been excellent—he notices Chinese writing everywhere and confidently speaks Mandarin with others. The teachers are friendly and professional, and Li Lian's leadership is wonderful. I'm very grateful for this excellent language learning experience for my son.
Background: My 6 yo boy started his lessons with Mandarin Pie in early 2022. Unable to speak or read in Mandarin. Achievement: In less than a year, he has improved tremendously. My boy can now read and communicate with us in Mandarin, which is much better than last time. Classes: Twice a week. Thanks to Teacher Kate for being patient with him and Teacher Sharon for sharing good advice. They do have Friday activities for the kids. Thank you, Mr Ken, for always helping me to pursue my boy to join the activities. Now my boy is always looking forward to the Friday activities. Thank you, Mandarin Pie team. All of you are awesome.
My children enjoyed learning with Mandarin Pie. Particularly, my 4yo started with unable to speak and read Chinese, but can now read/write, and speak fluently just after a few months. Many thanks to Mandarin Pie Team for their patience and professionalism.
I absolutely LOVE Mandarin Pie. My now 9yo son started biweekly online lessons with Mandarin Pie's tutor Teacher Ang in November 2020. He has shown significant confidence and improvement in speaking, writing and recognizing characters. Teacher Ang is very patient with him and is willing to help clarify any questions that we have. Mandarin Pie releases assignments / homework each week in addition to the virtual lessons (which I think is great). Athirah, the admin is great, she makes sure communication is done well with parents through Whatsapp. I am so grateful and I've never once regretted signing my son on with Mandarin PIE.
