Pioneer Language Institute

Learn Mandarin fast at one of the first private Chinese language schools for non-Chinese speakers in Taipei. We have a long experience in this field and specialize in Practical Mandarin; by practical mandarin we mean conversation with the right pronunciation. Learning mandarin is one thing - making yourself understood in Mandarin among the Chinese people is a different thing and not so easy. We know how to help you.

At our language school you can expect to receive the highest standards of quality teaching and service. Our teachers and English speaking office personnel take pleasure in helping you. We teach quality Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese or both to foreign students of all ages and all walks of life in a professional and friendly learning environment.

Located in the southern area of Taipei, near the Guting MRT (Mass Rapid Transit), Pli is easily accessed from all over Taipei by subway or bus. Pli uses modern and internationally recognized techniques, such as the Hanyu Pinyin system to effectively teach Chinese Mandarin to non-native speakers at all levels. This includes speaking, reading and writing Chinese. The school believes in ‘small class’ Mandarin learning as one of the most effective ways to study Chinese. In our one-on-one and small group Chinese classes, you will spend more time speaking Mandarin, while the teacher concentrates on addressing your specific needs. The small class environment will lead to a faster acquisition of fluency in Chinese.

Our Chinese teachers graduated from the best universities in Taiwan. They are trained and developed in this field of teaching by Pioneer Language Institute. They are also evaluated by students and supervisors regularly. Student feedback is used to help the teachers to develop their fullest teaching potential.

We strive to make your Chinese study practical and relevant to your needs.

We also offer Chinese history courses, cultural courses, classical Chinese literature courses, and advanced business conversation courses according to the student’s customized needs. We understand that our students are individuals with differing needs and we will cater to them accordingly. Live the language and enjoy our culture!
