What textbook do you use for the lessons?
The textbooks we use vary due to diversity of our students and their purpose of study.
We choose the correct textbook for each student based on his/her age, individual
needs & learning ability.
Do you offer group lessons or private lessons?
We offer both.
When can I start my lessons?
Private lessons can be started as soon as possible. Please contact us for group classes.
Can tutors come to my home to give lessons?
Yes, however this increases the cost of classes due to time and mileage charges.
Do you teach Mandarin with a Chinese accent or Taiwanese accent?
We teach you Mandarin with the standard accent. This is the most useful
form of Chinese as it is spoken in Mainland China,Taiwan, Singapore & Malaysia.
Standard Mandarin is the type spoken by news broadcasters, meaning you
will be understood wherever you go.
What are your hours of operation?
Language classes are taught between 9 and 6 on weekdays and
10 to 2 on Saturdays although other arrangements can be made to accommodate classes.
Who typically takes classes at Mercan?
Mercan's students come from a variety of backgrounds. We have beginner level language
learners at every age and for every purpose. Some students come to brush up on Chinese
they studied in college. Others come in preparation for vacation to China. Our students are
an incredibly diverse group.
Where is your current class roster posted?
Because most of our classes are small groups, there is no official roster.

I am not sure if Chinese classes are right for me. How do I get a free demo class?
New students can email or call us to enroll in a demo class.
