A Popular Mobile App – WeChat

  • January 17, 2015

Last Friday night, some one-on-one students had a daytrip within the Kunming city. When they encountered a minor problem and tried to contact Keats staff, none of them had a valid SIM card to make a local call. One of the students came up with an idea – contacting Keats staff using his mobile app, which is WeChat. Then they finally made their way to contact Joy of Keats School.

微信, its English name is WeChat. Developed in 2011, WeChat is a free app for real-time Internet phone calls and messages. It is now one of the most popular apps among Chinese people. Almost every young Chinese use the WeChat to communicate with their family and friends. To many users, the WeChat sometimes even replaces the phone calls and short messages.

Thanks to the WeChat, the students successfully found Joy who helped the students solve their problems and they were very grateful to Joy’s show-up in time. However, Joy was more thankful to the WeChat. Based on her real experience, Joy recommend any student who comes to learn Chinese in China to download the WeChat on their smart phones. Even you don’t have a valid SIM card, you can still find us through the WeChat under the wifi condition.

There is another feature of WeChat that is worth mentioning, which is the Friends Circle. Many Chinese learners use the Friends Circle to share their amazing experience in China. Friends can “like” or comment on the post. This function is more like the Facebook. It is also a great way to meet new Chinese friends.

There are now two versions of WeChat, one is the Chinese version and the other one is the International version. Keats students use the International version as its language is in English. You are also welcome to try the Chinese version which is the one that Chinese people are using. Take out your mobile phones and download the WeChat now! You can find out more information about the WeChat here: http://weixin.qq.com/

I think the Chinese learning environment here is great. The teaching methods are also very interactive and fun. What I particularly enjoy here is the fact that my teacher does not stick to the textbook. We spend a lot of time discussing general topics, such as Chinese culture, world news, typical expressions used by local people. We also discuss social and economic topics.

I can’t tell you how much I liked it. The thing I liked about the teachers and the teaching method is that there is so much flexibility. The other thing I liked about the teaching is the combination of classic textbook learning and going outside. I loved it! I like getting to know other students. Everybody shared the same goal and that’s making their Chinese better. Kunming is a big city, but it is very safe to live here. Another thing I liked about Keats is the idea that people here help you. I can’t recommend it enough. I think it was a valuable experience. Looking forward to coming back!

My school is amazing. I recommend Keats School because it is a more convenient way to learn Chinese in Kunming.

One thing I really liked was that I was able to work with my teacher to make an individual plan of study. Another really nice thing is that you live at the school, you feel completely safe.  You always have a group of people who are willing to do things with you on the weekends or in the evenings. They are serving you all the 3 meals a day, the food was excellent.

I have been to Keats School to learn Chinese for 4 times now. The reason for coming back to this school is pretty much that the teachers I did work with were very good Chinese teachers. I make it a 5-year plan or even a 10-year plan to come back to this school.  All the teachers have methods of looking at what your skills are. They are aware of at what level you are. I think it is worth for everyone.

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.

I am a graduate student working on my doctorate degree at Columbia University. We were able to really focus on speaking especially interview-style speaking and we are able to really up my Chinese reading and writing skills, so when I go back to Columbia, I can take formal Chinese classes. It has been a really good experience and I really love my teacher.
