Why Students Love Our HSK Chinese Courses
Iria, Spain
"Hello, my name is Iria. I have been living in China for 4 years. I have studied Mandarin for three years at NCM. In my opinion, the teaching quality is much better than in other academies. The method is really good -you can learn fast and easily. Teachers are friendly, and they really care about students.
Firstly, I took the course Survival 2, Survival 3, Social 1, Social 2 and Social 3, through which I learned how to talk about all the basic topics. Then, I took HSK Test preparation classes for HSK 3 and HSK4. They have good techniques to teach you the vocabulary and grammar needed. I passed HSK tests with good results.
Now, I can understand Chinese, and I have no communication problems with Chinese people."

Student's Story of Taking HSK Test
"Preparing for HSK is quite similar to other exams. You should try out the exam structure and questions in advance. Do at least 1 mock exam, but the more the better. This is particularly important if you’re going to take the HSK exam for the first time.
Even if you more or less know the drill from previous exams, you can still be in for a surprise. For example, in the listening part of level 4 the questions are only read once, in contrast to the lower levels."
