Parent Feedback on PYP / MYP Chinese and Mandarin
Feedback from international school PYP primary and MYP secondary families. Only genuine, verifiable and authorised testimonials should be published.
“Our daughter was initially reluctant to speak Mandarin in PYP. Through stories, games and everyday conversation, the tutor gradually built her confidence. She now speaks Mandarin more willingly at school and at home.”
“The tutor understood the school’s PYP inquiry unit and did not simply use generic local-school exercises. Vocabulary, reading and speaking were connected to the topic our child was studying, which made lessons much more engaging.”
“When our son entered MYP, the reading and writing expectations became much more demanding. The tutor used the school texts to develop comprehension, text response and essay structure, and his school Chinese work became much more consistent.”
“For MYP Chinese, understanding the school requirements is essential. The tutor helped our daughter organise her reading methods, writing framework and personal responses, while also preparing her for the longer-term IB Chinese B pathway.”
