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 really enjoy studying Chinese in Kunming at Keats. The teachers are great and my classmates are awesome. It is an unforgettable experience for me. I also got the chance to travel to other places in Yunnan. Those places are amazing and you definitely need to visit these places when you study Chinese in China at Keats.

My first semester that I studied at another school, and the pressure there was pretty high, the classroom hour was long, and the homework was pretty tedious. Since I came to Keats, I found I have a lot more opportunities to speak in the classroom. My classmates all are fluent and love speaking and participating in the class. We have great classroom dynamic.

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

The best part of the school is the patience the instructors had and the time to focus on the fundamentals like pronunciation. I think it is very easy to skip over those and go to vocabulary. But by learning the pronunciation, I feel like it helped me gain a better understanding of the language.

Kunming is a great place to learn Chinese in China because not many Chinese on the street speak English. Keats has been a great school for me and a lot of other foreigners who studied in China recommended it to me. I think they are all right. The study method here is really structured. They make learning Chinese really easy. There are also a lot of cultural and natural places to visit.

Before I came to Keats School, I had no confidence in my Chinese proficiency. I did not have the confidence to speak Mandarin Chinese and chat with Chinese people. However, after 4 months of study at Keats, I become more and more confident in speaking Chinese now. Studying Chinese in China at Keats School has been the best decision I have ever made. There are many games in the class, and my teacher’s teaching methods are also very interesting. My experience at Keats School has changed my view of China and Chinese people.

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 have studied at Keats for 2 semesters. I highly recommend Keats School. If you are very interested in taking a Mandarin course in China, I would suggest you come to Kunming. Kunming people are very friendly. The weather in Kunming is great. So I recommend that you study Chinese at Keats in Kunming.
