Chinese courses for adults      HSK Test preparation courses

CChinese is one of the most useful languages you can leave school with, and the earlier you start the further you get. We teach secondary-level students from International, Bilingual and Thai schools, and wherever you are now is where your lessons will start.

Our general Chinese courses cover all four skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. Characters get proper attention from the start, because getting on top of them early makes everything afterwards easier. We teach Chinese alongside the culture it comes from, so you come away able to use it as well as be examined on it. Your teachers work with this age group every week.

Not sure where you are starting from? The free assessment is a relaxed conversation, not an exam, at any of our five Bangkok locations or online. Bring a parent if you like. You will leave knowing your level, with a study plan you can look through together. We would love to meet you.

Benefits of studying Chinese

Why Chinese is worth the characters

an image of downtown Beijing, in China

The Importance of Chinese

CChina is Thailand's largest trading partner, ahead of both the United States and Japan, and Bangkok has one of the largest Chinese communities of any city outside China. If you are growing up here, Chinese is already around you, in shops, in restaurants and in half the signage in some districts.
Then there are universities. A solid Chinese level opens up options in Singapore, Taiwan and mainland China as well as at home.

Tell us what you want from your Chinese

Closer to home than you think

More than a billion people speak Chinese, across China, Taiwan, Singapore and a good deal further. Thailand has the largest Chinese community of any country outside China, and Chinese families have been part of Thai life for around four hundred years. You are learning a language that is already spoken all around you, which means you can try it out the moment you walk out of the door.

IGCSE Chinese

Chinese comes up at IGCSE in three versions, First Language, Second Language and Foreign Language, and each one asks for something different. We hold the materials for all three, so once we know which paper you are sitting we can help with your coursework and homework as well as the exam.

For Chinese-speaking families

A good number of our students are native Chinese speakers whose families moved to Thailand. You speak comfortably at home, but reading and writing have slipped behind because the school day runs in English or Thai. Those lessons look quite different from a beginner course. We start from what you can already do and work on characters, reading and written accuracy, until the written language catches up with the spoken one.

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.
Nelson Mandela

Chinese in the world

Mandarin is the most widely spoken form of Chinese and, as a language in itself, has more speakers than any other language. Every Chinese dialect shares one writing system, and around three thousand characters will get you reading a newspaper. That sounds like a lot until you meet the first hundred, which is usually where it clicks. Recognising a character in the wild for the first time is a very good feeling.

Chinese at Modulo

Modulo has the best Chinese teachers. All of our teachers are selected carefully and experienced in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. They are good at the part that matters most, which is getting a room of teenagers actually speaking. We offer our students individual Chinese courses tailor-made to their own personal needs and interests as well as group lessons.
