"  WenLin teachers have been excellent. My 5 year old and 2 year old children have been making really good progress with their Chinese.  All the teachers are very enthusiastic and caring. The school has organised many cultural events such as Chinese New Year festival, School disco etc that brought the parents and children together. During the lockdown, all the lessons were conducted online but the teachers manage to engage all the children and they even offered video lesson recording free for younger children. The school updates the parents with their children study reports and there are also scholarship programmes for those children who are very committed to studying Chinese. Highly recommend WenLin Chinese School! "

" You and the school have done my daughter proud. The support and tutoring she received at WenLin was superb. Please pass on our thanks to all her teachers. I really can’t thank you enough as your patience gave her the confidence and the enjoyment of learning Mandarin. She is taking Mandarin A level at her school but she has already told me that the teachers at WenLin were far better than the one she will have for A-Level there. So thank YOU. "

" Mandarin Summer Camp was a really good experience for me and my son. We are non Chinese speakers and the camp exposed us to the language and picked up practical words or sentences easily. Our activities were fun and engaging. Teachers encouraged us to speak in Mandarin all throughout but explained in English when you really can't understand. It was a great opportunity to learn mandarin quickly. Will join again next year! "

" My son, just before he turned 13 years old decided that he wanted to re-take up Mandarin and try for a GCSE.  He has been studying a bit during Primary School whilst we lived in Singapore but had lapsed for over a year whilst we relocated back to London. 
He started Saturday classes in September 2018 at WenLin Chinese School and within a few months he had gained enough confidence and knowledge to consider taking the GCSE Exam this May, aged 13. Rosa and the WenLin school went out of their way to support Jamie and to provide a significant amount of help, with Rosa personally giving her time in the lead up to the Oral and Listening exams to practice with him over the phone each evening.
I would highly recommend the school. The staff are qualified, dedicated and anyone seeking to learn Mandarin to whatever level they chose would be in good hands. "

" WenLin school and Rosa have provided exceptional Mandarin classes especially for the little ones. My daughter who joined the class when she turned 1 has had a phenomenal beginning to Mandarin learning journey. Both my husband and I are not Chinese and speak another language at home but for Amiera we wanted her to learn Mandarin, who not only enjoyed taking on this challenge but she picked up the language exceptionally fast with Rosa's teaching method. We have been looking for a really good school locally but could not find one as good as this though it's a train journey for us but we absolutely love looking forward to coming in for our class on the weekend. "

"Rosa and WenLin have provided a phenomenal start to Zac’s Mandarin learning journey. The teachers are student focused and interweave the richness of Chinese culture into their teaching. The teachers’ motivational energy is contagious which brings a unique atmosphere to the classes.
After reviewing multiple Chinese language schools across London, we found that Wenlin’s formatting, student engagement and teaching style of the classes appeared to be the clear differentiator.
Zac immensely enjoys the cultural stories, songs and creative activities. Throughout the week he reminds us that we need to take him to the classes! "

" Me and my husband are not Chinese, but we decided to teach our daughter Mandarin since when she was 9 months old. Why? Because it is a very difficult language (for an European), but with and amazing history and culture behind; we know that it is much easier for her to learn it now with no effort, through fun and play, and because it is a precious "plus" she will have in her curriculum when she will be an adult. Now she is 5, it is time for her to learn how to write and read also Mandarin, she enjoys it, and we receive compliments from native speakers for her skills. It is a commitment also for us as parents, but we think it is worth it, it opens her mind and contributes to prepare her get ready for the future challenges. "

" I have been impressed with the personalised approach to learning my son receives at WenLin school. The lessons are carefully tailored to his abilities. He loves the supporting materials provided which he finds really engaging. I get great feedback from the school on his progress and his Chinese has come on in leaps and bounds. We are so happy he is investing his time in learning this useful language. "

" Our daughter is 3 years old and has started attending WenLin Chinese School in October 2016. The lessons are taught in a very enthusiastic way, with great focus and attention paid to the child. The lessons are very interactive, which keeps all the children engaged for the 45 minutes, which is no mean feat for an age range of 18 months to 3 years old. The practical element of the class is a great idea, and Rosa brings in plenty of objects for the children to physically handle that relate to the pictures for the topic of that week. Rosa has a very friendly and engaging persona, which makes the children feel comfortable very quickly and this can be seen in their confidence as they engage and listen to her for the lesson. Rosa communicates the specific word through a method of repetition, utilising the practical and interactive element very effectively, and this is demonstrated by the children in the class as they identify the picture or object from the Chinese word. In addition to this there is song, dance and a story in every lesson, and our daughter always has a smile on her face in the class, which is a true testament to Rosa's teaching. "

" Rosa works incredibly hard to put together thoughtful and engaging sessions for the children. She has a kind and gentle manner and makes sure each child gets individual attention. Our daughter Lia seems to thoroughly enjoy the classes and is growing in confidence with each session. We're really happy that something like this exists so close to home. Thank you Rosa :-) "

" This is a great Chinese class!  My son is a complete beginner and Rosa's patience and enthusiasm for teaching Chinese has been fantastic.  The lessons are always fun with singing, dancing and props to really engage the children.  Rosa gives each child lots of focus and each week, we play games to 'bed in' the new vocab they have learnt that day - which is very effective.  I would highly recommend  "

" My son joined Wenlin Chinese School after his 8 weeks' stayed in China. He was able to have simple communication but not able to write. Wenlin nicely assessed his level on his trial lesson and pointed him to the group with similar level kids. I feel this does give him confident to speak in the class.  Teacher and TA are very nice and truly love children. My son seems very happy and has no problem to go to school in the weekend. I like the idea of this school which works in a small group in that way teacher can more focus on where the kids need to improve.  After attended one term, my son is able to write more than 50 words and most important he slowly pick up the logic on the writing order! I will encourage you have a conversation with the Headmaster. She truly has the passion on teaching Chinese for young kids and a lot of good ideas on how to coaching children. "

" 我们家两个孩子从文麟学校一开办就报名学习中文班，算算也有近一年的时间了。 在文麟学校短短的一年时间里学校一直都在以最好的状态去教导孩子们， 让孩子们能够对中文产生更多的兴趣。 到目前为止 婷婷和涵杰的中文水平进步的很快， 会识字认字， 在学校也认识了好多好朋友。当然一开始我也是有所退缩， 毕竟这是在英国， 孩子们每天说最多的还是英文，只能说是抱着试试的态度。 孩子目前能有这样的成绩我真的很欣慰。不仅是校长每天都在密切的关注每一个孩子的学习， 就是甘老师也在每次课程之后与家长交心的探讨孩子们的学习状况，每一次都在跟进孩子们的作业。积极的解决孩子们的问题。 很幸运我们家附近有这样好的一所中文学校。祝文麟学校越办越好。"

" Both our children have been studying Chinese at WenLin Chinese School since they’ve opened. In very short time, my children have learnt how to read and write in Chinese and have developed strong interests in learning Chinese. The school always give us their best attention and effort in teaching our children. I am so pleased to see their progress in learning Chinese. Not only the school principal care so closely on each child’s learning, but also Miss. Gan the class teacoher always chat to us after each class about how our children have learnt in the class and how they did for their homework. They always find best way to help my children to learn. We are very lucky that we live so close to such a good Chinese school. Wish WenLin Chinese will do better and better. "

" We were going to China for my children’s Kung Fu training. Rosa kindly offered to help my boys with their Chinese. Wenlin Chinese school was a very good experience for my children. It has made them very interested in languages, and they still talk about how much they liked Rosa and their teachers. I’d highly recommend them to all families. "
