We help australian’s learn chinese with ease
It’s our mission to make learning Mandarin fun and easy for all ages. We tutor working professionals and kids across Australia, from ages 8 and up. We’re based in Brisbane, but you can learn on Zoom from anywhere in the world.
A private tutor makes all the difference
Most people struggle to learn Mandarin on their own. They find it complex and time-consuming… It’s hard to know where to even get stared.
At Journey Chinese, we’ve developed a simple framework that helps you learn Mandarin in building blocks effectively. With a personal tutor on your side, you can learn Chinese with ease!
