Det har vært bemerkelsesverdig fordi jeg har møtt mange mennesker som jeg møtte første gang i fjor, og som liker at jeg kommer tilbake til Keats i år. Undervisningen har vært fantastisk. Lærerne forbereder hver leksjon nøye. Jeg synes denne en-til-en-tilnærmingen er en fin måte å raskt øke nivået ditt i kinesisk og øke selvtilliten og flyten din i språket.
Stedet er veldig kult. Jeg er sammen med en flott gruppe mennesker i klassen min, så det er veldig hyggelig å komme på timene. Det er gøy, vi har mange diskusjoner, spill og aktiviteter. Lærerne våre er også veldig flinke og veldig støttende. Å lære kinesisk er skremmende i starten fordi du har så mange spørsmål. Men jeg vil anbefale å komme til Keats fordi atmosfæren for læring er flott. Det er veldig avslappende. Jeg vil anbefale skolen.
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.
Jeg er en masterstudent som jobber med doktorgraden min ved Columbia University. Vi klarte å fokusere mye på å snakke, spesielt intervjubasert tale, og vi har klart å forbedre mine kinesiske lese- og skriveferdigheter, så når jeg drar tilbake til Columbia, kan jeg ta formelle kinesiskkurs. Det har vært en veldig god opplevelse, og jeg elsker læreren min.
Så i løpet av den første uken min på Keats turte jeg ikke å snakke noen kinesiske ord. Jeg fant ut at kinesisknivået mitt raskt hadde blitt bedre siden den gang. Selv om jeg har mange muligheter til å studere i Kina, for eksempel tilbyr noen andre skoler vertsfamilier, fant jeg ut at jeg kunne fordype meg og fokusere fullt ut på å lære kinesisk ved å bo på Keats.
Jeg har hatt en fantastisk tid på Keats. Jeg er overrasket over hvor mye jeg har lært de siste tre ukene, og jeg kommer til å bli veldig lei meg for å dra. Vi planlegger allerede vår neste tur tilbake, fordi vi hadde en så fantastisk tid her. De skreddersyr virkelig kinesiskkurset til deg og dine individuelle behov.
Jeg fant Keats School, og jeg er så glad for at jeg gjorde det. Når du lærer kinesisk i Kina på Keats, blir du tatt godt vare på. Læreren min er virkelig flott, og vi blir gode venner.
Det spiller ingen rolle hvilket nivå du har i kinesisk, eller du kan starte på nullnivå. Læreren din vil forberede timene i henhold til dine behov. Fordelen med å bo på skolen er at du får privatundervisning, privat innkvartering med eget bad og alle måltider er inkludert. Jeg anbefaler på det sterkeste alle å ta hele pakken, fordi du får møte andre studenter.
