WHY DINE AT KEATS

Adjusting the authentic Chinese food into a more healthy Way

Authentic Chinese Cuisine: Keats Cafeteria uses fresh produce to prepare delicious Chinese food with top-quality oil. Keats students enjoy eating at Keats Cafeteria as it is a place to meet other students studying Chinese and to get to know the Keats teachers.

FRESH INGREDIENTS

Organic, root-to-stem dining

Inspired by Yunnan minority cuisine and crafted in accordance with the earth’s natural rhythms, Keats Cafeteria believes healthy dining is critical to your Mandarin Chinese language course in China. This can keep you energized. We use fresh meat and vegetables and maintain five-star hygiene standards.

AVAILABLE CHOICES FOR VEGETARIANS

Earnest, approachable cooking in a modern way

Yunnan is famous for its plant variation. There are a great number of green vegetables that can only be found in Yunnan. We offer 3 to 4 options for vegetarians each meal. You can enjoy the art of vegetarian cuisine from a remote part of China.

CONVERSATION WITH OTHER STUDENTS

A Chinese-Only table for you to practice your Chinese

Keats Cafeteria is the best place to meet other students and widen your social network when you learn Chinese in China. It is also a good opportunity to practice your Chinese with Keats teachers during meal times. In order to get the most out of the intensive immersion Chinese program, we have Chinese-Only tables where you can only speak Chinese during meal times. This forces you to immerse yourself in a pure Chinese language environment.

FAQ

If I don't eat at the school, can I get a refund?

Meals are offered as a free service to bring convenience to the students, so students don’t have to rush out for meals if they have classes next. You are not billed for meals, so we are unable to provide a refund if you don’t eat here.

Please note: the free meals come with accommodation at the school. If you find your own accommodation and only take classes at Keats, free meals are not offered, and you can purchase them separately.

Are meals offered during the weekend?

No. The meals are only offered Monday to Friday. Students are welcome to join our Saturday excursions and travel on their own during the weekend.

What are meal options outside of the school?

Because the Kunming campus is located in the city center, there are many fancy restaurants in the shopping malls nearby or street food shops in small alleys.

Are meals only offered at the Kunming campus?

Yes, free meals are only offered at the Kunming campus. For other locations that have beautiful scenery and are famous for their minority culture, you will have many choices for meals to try local food. You will also have the chance to have meals together with your teacher at locations outside of Kunming.

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.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

I’ve been at Keats school and Kunming now for one month doing the one-on-one Chinese lessons with two different teachers. I really enjoy it. Both of my teachers are very friendly and patient. They really helped me to improve my Chinese, both of my reading and speaking. I really enjoy studying Chinese in Kunming as well. This city is really beautiful and the weather is nice, the air is clean. It’s one of the best cities in China to study Chinese.

Emiliano | Mexico

Small Group Chinese Class

I come to Kunming because I think the environment in Kunming is better and I heard that Keats School is better. I like the small group Chinese class because my classmates study hard and our teachers are very good. I like the teaching method of Keats because I like the activities at Keats. I think Yunnan is a particularly beautiful Chinese province.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

I’ve had a really great time here. I’ve studied a lot with my teacher who was fantastic. Keats School tried very hard to match its students with really good teachers that their personality works very well together. I really enjoy studying Chinese at Keats and I will definitely come back.

Jade | UK & Mauritius

Small Group Chinese Class

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.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

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.
