If the enemy forces are strong, try to subdue their general; if the general is wise, try to crush his willpower. When the general becomes infirm and the soldiers listless, their combat power will dwindle. It is of benefit to resist an invasion; security can be attained by internal unity. War is a continuation of […]

Such a local Earth God is […]
Although life is predetermined, ancient Chinese believes that life can be borrowed like money. When one got an incurable disease, his life was numbered, but if anyone would lend him “longevity”, his life might be prolonged. Therefore, his children or other close relations would fast, perform ablutions and go to ancestral temple to pray, saying […]

Od prejšnjega semestra smo začeli študirati kitajščino na Keatsu. To je bila najboljša odločitev, kar smo jih kdajkoli sprejeli. Je res dobra šola. Pouk je zelo zabaven, veliko se naučiš, a je zelo interaktiven, zato se veliko pogovarjaš, kar pomeni, da ne gre samo za knjige in pisanje. Kunming je res prijetno mesto za življenje, še posebej, če ga primerjamo z drugimi mesti na vzhodu. Če radi potujete, če se radi učite kitajščine na zabaven način, ima Keats najboljši program kitajskega jezika za vas.
Mislim, da je Kunming odlično mesto, vreme je res lepo. Šola Keats mi je zelo všeč in se mi zdi zelo organizirana. Učitelji tukaj so zelo dobri. Imajo kavarno in nove učilnice, zdaj je tu tudi nov prostor za druženje, tako da se lahko sprostite s prijatelji in vadite govorjeno kitajščino z domačini. Če razmišljate o študiju v Keatsu, vam ga res priporočam. To je najboljše mesto za učenje mandarinščine in mislim, da bo to za vas odlična izkušnja.
Vsakodnevno poslušanje in govorjenje v razredu je izboljšalo moje komunikacijske sposobnosti. Po treh tednih so moje nove besede in stavki postajali vedno bolj naravni in tekoči. Zdaj sem navajen razmišljati v kitajščini in bolje razumem, kaj govorijo drugi ljudje, da se lahko z njimi resnično pogovarjam.
Prvi semester sem študiral na drugi šoli in tam je bil pritisk precej velik, ure v razredu so bile dolge, domače naloge pa precej dolgočasne. Odkar sem prišel na Keats, sem ugotovil, da imam veliko več priložnosti za govorjenje v razredu. Vsi moji sošolci tekoče govorijo in radi govorijo ter sodelujejo v razredu. Imamo odlično dinamiko v razredu.
Mislim, da je Keats ena najboljših jezikovnih šol, v katerih sem kdaj bila. Moja učiteljica je neverjetna oseba. Zelo dobro poučuje. Pouk naredi zabavnega. Med bivanjem tukaj sem se naučila veliko besedišča. Resnično priporočam, da se učite mandarinščine v šoli Keats.
Za učenje kitajščine v Kunmingu sem se odločil, ker imam rad manjša mesta in ker mi je tukajšnje podnebje všeč. Tukaj smo se učili štiri ure na dan in moja draga učiteljica me je veliko naučila in ni nikoli izgubila potrpljenja z mano. Bilo je res čudovito doživetje in vsem, ki se radi učijo kitajščine na Kitajskem, priporočam šolo Keats in tukajšnje učitelje.
Najboljši del šole je potrpežljivost inštruktorjev in čas, ki so si ga vzeli za osredotočenje na osnove, kot je izgovorjava. Mislim, da je zelo enostavno preskočiti te stvari in se posvetiti besedišču. Ampak z učenjem izgovorjave imam občutek, da mi je to pomagalo bolje razumeti jezik.
Šolo Keats sem se do zdaj učil kitajščine že štirikrat. Razlog za vrnitev v to šolo je v veliki meri ta, da so bili učitelji, s katerimi sem delal, zelo dobri učitelji kitajščine. Načrtujem vrnitev v to šolo za 5 ali celo 10 let. Vsi učitelji imajo metode za ocenjevanje vaših znanj in spretnosti. Vedo, na kateri ravni ste. Mislim, da se splača za vsakogar.
