On our first trial lesson, Connor kept my 6 year old interested with images of pets and cartoonish characters that naturally appeal to kids. My son was smiling and forgot some of his inhibitions by the time we got to a game of tic tac toe that Connor modified to reinforce counting numbers and practice of simple vocabulary words he just taught. I look forward to future classes.

I recently had the pleasure of taking the FrostForward Online Introductory Mandarin course with Connor Frost. As a first time student of the language, it was imperative that I work with someone who was patient, and able to break down this difficult language in it’s most digestible form. Connor did not disappoint on either front. From the onset, it was clear that he was not only experienced, but well-versed in one of the world’s most difficult dialects (written and spoken). His fluidity made me more at ease and trusting of his instruction. I appreciate the obvious time he takes prepare in advance of each lesson, and the information he shares to help with independent study. I look forward to studying with Connor for some time to come!

I was a little anxious to do online learning and had some questions before starting what seems like a very complicated language (mandarin), but Connor was professional yet laid back, answered all my questions, and explained the plan ahead in a way that made me feel on board with the lessons. So far it’s just the beginning but i am truly looking forward to my next lessons with him.
