5.00Besides the careful way of teaching, the explanation is very easy to understand because it is done while looking at a large monitor. Also, since the instructors are professional, I really like the fact that when it comes to practical skills, you can feel their seriousness. It is close to the NPM and I would like to go again.
Wonderful cultural experience!

5.00I went into this workshop already knowing some Chinese but Ginn really expanded upon my knowledge base! Apart from being a knowledgeable instructor, she’s also very patient and overall lovely. She took my interests into account, and the tea served as delicious. It was a great, relaxing way to spend a rainy Taipei afternoon.
A great learning experience

5.00This course was phenomenal! My group was entirely inexperienced with Chinese and calligraphy but loved learning about the different styles and history from the lecture and had so much fun practicing with all of Theresa’s exercises (she’s a spectacular teacher) ! Her aids Tom Michael and Jin were also so kind, supportive, and informative! We each got to take home a scroll we wrote a message on as well! Great for all ages
Amazing teacher

5.00In a beautiful, filled with Chinese paintings, calligraphy and artefacts, we spent more than 2 magic hour. Teresa is very gentle, positive and welcoming. She shares the knowledge of calligraphy with clarity and generosity. We were offered tea, and were encouraged to try the strokes with the brush. Then we got to create our own roll, with a meaningful writing on it. We loved every minute of the workshop and would like to continue.
