Why Learn Chinese in Nanjing?

Nanjing invites you to discover where ancient grandeur meets dynamic modern life. As a former imperial capital, the city is steeped in history, from the majestic Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum and the poignant Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum to the preserved sections of its ancient city wall. Stroll along the Qinhuai River, alive with tales of scholars and lantern-lit boats, or find serenity in the lush, forested Purple Mountain. Today, that rich heritage fuels a vibrant, innovative city with a thriving arts scene and a welcoming, cosmopolitan atmosphere. Nanjing offers a uniquely authentic and profound journey into the continuous heart of Chinese culture.

Sightseeing After Class with Your Teacher

  • The best thing about studying in Nanjing is that your teacher will accompany you to do sightseeing every day after class, to create a pure Chinese language environment for you. Your teacher will practice Chinese with you in real-life situations. Studying Chinese in Nanjing not only focuses on the Chinese language but also offers a chance to explore the city with your teacher.
  • Note: The entrance ticket and transportation fee (if there is any) for sightseeing after class are not included in the tuition fee.

Cuisine in Nanjing - Nanjing Salted Duck (盐水鸭)

Nanjing Salted Duck is the most famous dish from the city. People often call Nanjing the “Capital of Duck.” This dish is known for its light, salty taste and tender meat. The duck is not smoked or roasted; it is cooked in salt water with spices. The skin is thin and pale, and the meat is juicy and not greasy. It is a common cold dish served at family dinners or as a snack. Locals love to eat it because it is fresh and flavorful, not heavy. Every visitor to Nanjing should try this classic local specialty.

Cuisine in Nanjing - Pan-Fried Beef Dumplings (牛肉锅贴)

These are not ordinary boiled dumplings. They are pan-fried, so the outside is golden, crispy, and a little bit crunchy. The inside is filled with juicy, well-seasoned ground beef. The best ones have a thin skin that is soft on top and perfectly crispy on the bottom. They are usually shaped like a crescent moon. You eat them hot, often with a little vinegar for extra flavor. They are a famous and delicious snack that people line up to buy. They make for a perfect, quick, and satisfying meal any time of day.

Cuisine in Nanjing - Pan-Fried Vegetable Buns (生煎素菜包)

These are a delicious vegetarian version of a classic local snack. The buns are pan-fried until their bottoms become golden brown and wonderfully crispy. The inside is filled with a mix of fresh, finely chopped vegetables, like cabbage, mushrooms, and fragrant leeks. The filling is juicy and seasoned lightly with soy sauce and sesame oil. They are a very popular breakfast or street food. You can enjoy them for their satisfying mix of a crunchy outside and a soft, savory inside. It’s a simple and tasty dish that everyone, vegetarian or not, can love.

Martine | France

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

I really enjoy this place because we have private Mandarin 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.

Joleen | Germany

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

About studying Chinese 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.

Ivo testimonial for keats chinese school

Ivo | Switzerland

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

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.

Simon testimonial for keats chinese school

Simon | UK & France

Small Group Chinese Class

The visa application was really straightforward, because Keats School helps us a lot with that. Keats has a big emphasis on conversational practice, so we learn a lot of vocabulary and daily life plans which is very convenient for us to go around town and speak with Chinese people which is the whole point of learning Chinese in China.

Judith | USA

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

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.

Dr. Med. Beatrice | Austria

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

I decided to learn Chinese in Kunming because I like smaller cities and I like the climate here. We had four hours a day study here and my dear teacher taught me very much and never lost her patience with me. It was a really wonderful experience to be here and I recommend Keats school and the teachers here to everyone who likes to learn Chinese in China.
