Program Intro

Personalized Study Plan

    The one-on-one Chinese language program has been the most popular program since the school started in 2004. We develop personalized learning materials exclusively for you to meet your learning goals and requirements. Intensive one-on-one Chinese instruction provides you with more opportunities to practice your spoken Chinese and get real-time correction. We will develop a curriculum for you based on your level of Chinese language skills. In this way, you will maximize the amount that you learn at Keats. You can tell us whatever you want to learn. Before starting the lessons, you will have a talk with your teacher so that the teacher can prepare the lessons according to your requirements and preference.

    Start Anytime

      Keats School opens all year round, including the national holidays. You can come to study ANYTIME according to your schedule. You will be assigned an academic advisor who will help make your transitions to studying in China more smooth. Your progress will be tracked and teaching strategies will be adjusted to meet your learning requirements. The one-on-one Chinese immersion program is the best way to study Mandarin in China. After learning Chinese at Keats, you will be well on your way to fluency.

      Study, Live and Dine in ONE Building

        You do not have to catch a bus and rush to school from where you live; and you do not have to search for where to eat after class; because you can study, eat and live in ONE BUILDING. This is really hard to find when you study Chinese in China. Please Note: If you register late, you may get a room in Keats Accommodation Part 2, which is not in same building where the school is located and is about 5 minutes’ walk from the school.

        Intensive and Immersive

          There are two choices for one-on-one Chinese language classes: 4 hours per day (20 hours per week) and 6 hours per day (30 hours per week). You can choose the level of intensity according to your needs. If your time to study in China is very limited and you want to make the most out of your time at Keats, 6 hours per day is recommended. If you are on a vacation and want to have a relaxed schedule while making solid progress, 4 hours per day is recommended.

          CULTURAL ELECTIVES

          If you are interested in Chinese culture, you are very welcome to take some Chinese culture lessons while you take the one-on-one Chinese language class at Keats.

          If you want to bring back gifts for your family and friends, a beautiful work of Chinese calligraphy written by you couldn’t be better. After taking 3 to 5 lessons of Chinese calligraphy, our students are able to write their own works of Chinese calligraphy. There are 2 hours for one Chinese calligraphy lesson and 2 lessons per week. They are arranged either in the evening or at a time when you are not in your Chinese language classes.

          If you want to keep healthy, Tai Chi/Taiji or Kung Fu can be a great choice for the time you are in China. When you practice Tai Chi, you will learn the hard and soft martial art technique, and enjoy the philosophy of Yin and Yang. Both Tai Chi and Kung Fu are good for self-defense, aesthetic appeal and physical and mental health. There are 2 hours for one Tai Ji/Kung Fu lesson and 2 lessons per week.

          If you want to take the tasty Chinese cuisine back home, take our Chinese cooking class because we will teach you how to prepare delicious Chinese food. You may wonder why the Kong Pao Chicken served at Keats is way more delicious than the one served in Chinatown in your country. At Keats, you will find the answer and the secret behind Chinese cooking. After taking the Chinese cooking class, you will be able to prepare your own food at home and surprise your friends at a party or family gathering. You will learn to cook 4 dishes per week.

          The Chinese musical instrument can be chosen from Guzheng, Erhu, Pipa and Hulusi. Guzheng, Erhu, and Pipa have thousands of years of history and have distinctive sounds. Guzheng and Pipa were important musical instruments in ancient Chinese palace and favored by many Chinese emperors. Erhu was originated from Tang Dynasty and was very popular in the northern area. Hulusi is a typical Yunnan musical instrument, and a classic representation of minority music. The Chinese musical instrument is 2 hours per lesson, 2 lessons per week.

          Intensive One on One Chinese Classes

          My name is Sarah Fish. I am 81. I knew very little Chinese when I arrived. How was I going to survive 2 weeks of intensive Chinese? I have to laugh when I think of that now. What a positive experience this has been! I really wish we could be here a little longer. The teachers are extremely encouraging, evaluating first how much someone knows, and then starting from there.

          About studying here, I think the living condition is very convenient, because the dorm is very close to the classroom. Our teachers really enjoy teaching Chinese. They are also very passionate. Compared with other cities in China, Kunming has really good weather.

          Intensive One on One Chinese Classes

          All teachers are really lovely. The teaching level at Keats is so much higher. I really love the city. It is very comfortable to get around. I fully recommend Keats. It is a great place to come. We are looking forward to coming back again later this year.

          It doesn’t matter what level of Chinese you have, or even you can start from the zero level. Your teacher will prepare the lessons according to your requirements. The advantage of living in the school is that you will have your tutoring, you will have your private accommodation with your own bathroom and all the meals provided. I highly recommend everybody to actually take the whole package because you get to meet other students.

          Intensive One on One Chinese Classes

          This is my second time coming. Last year, I also came for about 12 weeks. This time I came for 13 weeks. The reason why I particularly want to come to this school was because of the one-on-one classes. I was able to increase my level and learn more quickly than group classes. If I have a chance again to come next year, I certainly will.

          Intensive One on One Chinese Classes

          I really enjoy this place because we have private lessons. I took the 6-hour program, 4 hours in the morning, 2 in the afternoon. Even though it is quite a lot, the teaching is complimentary. This is very helpful because I could review what I did before and learn new things. My 2 teachers are fantastic. We live in the school, so it is convenient. It is interesting to me to meet people from all over the world.

          They really care about what our interests are, what questions we have, what requirements we have. Then they adjust our class content according to the situations. One teacher and one student, so it is easy to keep your focus for the 6 hours of lessons. It is very convenient to study, live and eat in one building.

          Intensive One on One Chinese Classes

          I have 2 teachers, and I do 4 hours a day. So I have got Dong Laoshi and Jin Laoshi. Both of them are very good. They made the experience very nice to me. They are willing to help you whenever, so if you ever have a question here, the teachers are always there to help you whether it is visas, whether it is getting around the city. Everyone wants to talk to you.
