Regular classes have traditionally used the same textbooks as those used at National Taiwan Normal University's Mandarin Training Center. However, under new administration and direction, the Mandarin Learning Center has recently begun to offer a multitude of new courses covering such topics such as Chinese movies, Chinese Songs, Travel, HSK preparation, etc.
Scholarships
Currently MLC does not offer its own scholarships to students. Previously, students could take a bi-annually held exam to qualify for a 6-month 10,000 nt per month scholarship. However, students may still apply for government scholarships.
Volunteer Services
MLC offers an office volunteer service for its students. Students who are not comfortable communicating in Chinese may come to the office to speak directly with a volunteer in their own language. Support is available for English, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese.
