Learn Chinese in China with Keats School

Go Back

Blossom Season Kunming

  • Liubing
  • March 15, 2014

Kunming, “Spring City of China”, is famous for its beautiful weather, like spring all year round. Thus, you can see flowers everywhere in Kunming. Kunming local people know exactly when to appreciate the beauty of different kinds of flowers. During the summer, locals go to the Daguan Park to see the lotus; during the autumn, locals go to the same park to see chrysanthemum; during the winter, locals go to the Black Dragon Pool to see plum blossom; during the spring, locals go to the Golden Temple to appreciate the camellias. Keats teachers suggest Keats students to take the golden time now in Kunming to see the beautiful flowers in each park. Last week, Keats teacher took her student to the Yuantong Mountain to see the sakura and crabapple blossoms.

Isi is a returning student who comes to learn Chinese in China  at Keats every summer. Now this is his fifth time in Kunming at Keats School. Luckily, now is March and is also a great time experience the sakura season in Yuantong Moutain. Therefore, Isi’s teacher arranged an outdoor lesson for Isi. Before the outdoor lesson, the teacher gave a brief introduction of the Yuantong Mountain, and also posted a few tasks for Isi to force him practice his Chinese while seeing the beautiful flowers. Although Isi is not an expert in photographing, he is very interested in taking photos and prepared a professional camera before he came to Kunming. Now the camera became very important for his trip to the Yuantong Moutain and helped him record to the beautiful moment. The teacher and the student were amazed by the sakura everywhere once they entered the park. Isi was trying to practice his Chinese with other Chinese people while appreciating the amazing scenery. Isi loves kids and always shows his friendliness to the Chinese kids and take pictures with them.

Isi enjoyed his experience at the Yuantong Moutain and recommended it to other students. Keats teachers arrange outdoor lessons every week or every two weeks to let the students put what they have learned in classroom into practical situations. If you are in Kunming now or plan to visit Kunming in spring, don’t forget to go to the Yuantong Mountain to celebrate the “Sakura Season”.

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 of a summer program in China. 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 Chinese more quickly than in group classes. If I have a chance again to come next year, I certainly will.

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.

Listening and speaking in the classroom every day has improved my communication skills. After three weeks, my new words and sentences became more and more natural and fluent. Now I am used to thinking in Chinese, and I understand better what other people say, to be able to have real conversations with other people.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

It has been notable because I have met a lot of people who I met first time last year like me to come back to Keats this year. The teaching has been fantastic. The teachers carefully prepare each lesson. I think this one-on-one approach is really a great way to rapidly increase your level of Chinese and increase your confidence and fluency with the language.

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’ve had an amazing time at Keats. I am amazed at how much I’ve learned over the last 3 weeks and I will be really sad to go. We are already planning on our next trip of coming back because we had such a fantastic time here. They really tailor the Chinese language course to you and your individual needs.

I have to say it’s tons of fun. I have been here for 2 weeks. Not knowing what it was gonna be like, I was more than surprised at how great it is. The teachers are great, they are understanding. They do a Chinese language program that suits just you. The location is perfect for learning Chinese in China.

We use a lot of games to learn grammar and new words. We have really good teachers, really patient. She helps us a lot. Our class is really nice and we have people from all over the world, different countries. We often discuss topics in Chinese in our class. I live in the dorm of Keats. It is very convenient. I don’t have to spend time traveling. You can just focus on learning Chinese.
