Probably the most important and rewarding aspect of studying Mandarin is utilizing the language in our daily lives. Accent Mandarin teaches you all of the essentials in a fun and practical environment that encourages day-to-day Mandarin use. We utilize role-playing, audio-visual equipment, and placement in real-life situations such as shopping, getting around, and going out to eat. Other everyday topics include:
