By 'Mandarin Calligraphy', do you mean writing Chinese characters, or Chinese calligraphy? Writing would be learning how to write the characters, with everyday writing tools (pen, pencil). Chinese calligraphy is an art where a brush is used, and the characters in calligraphy may not be the same as modern characters.
