- This school seems to be one of the language schools which offer one-week Mandarin course. - Good access by subway. As it's close to Sheung Wan Station(上環駅), it's convenient to go sightseeing.
Insider tip: - English programs seem to be decent though, Mandarin ones are quite few. - I booked a course of 24 lessons per week. However, the course content was same as 15 lessons per week. I recommend you to book 15-lesson program.

Other comments - Two teachers taught me. One of them didn't prepare handouts and asked us to take a picture. As there is a copy machine in the office, I preferred to have handouts.

It was good to have both the British English teacher and a teacher of American-style that taught me the lessons alternately.
Insider tip: Since there are many unique teachers and nationality and ages of students vary, I think it is for someone who want to enjoy learning English.

Small group learning. Class allocation depending on the language levels.
Insider tip: As the school is located in an office building facing a street in downtown, it's a good location. However, it's a bit difficult to find the place. I recommend you to check the location in advance.

Other comments The leisure program is unfortunately not available. I've heard from classmates that long-term students (1+ year) are offered shared trips. However, there were zero events during my stay. Outside of your own class, unfortunately, there are no opportunities to get to know other classmates at the school, and there are no real common rooms. If you get one-to-one tuition because the booked course is not offered, you are left to fend for yourself after the end of the course. After a few days of one-to-one tuition, I was able to switch to a 15 lessons per week course plus a few individual lessons instead of the 24 lessons per week I had booked.
