Na Keatsu sem študiral dva semestra. Zelo priporočam šolo Keats. Če vas zelo zanima tečaj mandarinščine na Kitajskem, vam predlagam, da pridete v Kunming. Prebivalci Kunminga so zelo prijazni. Vreme v Kunmingu je odlično. Zato vam priporočam, da se učite kitajščine na Keatsu v Kunmingu.
Učitelji na Keatsu znajo brati učence in jim pomagati, da se z lahkoto naučijo kitajščine. Poznajo raven učencev. Sam se učim počasi, vendar so se uspeli prilagoditi mojemu učenju. Pouk so naredili zelo zabaven in zelo razburljiv. Vesel sem, da sem se ne le naučil kulture in jezika, ampak sem si tudi pridobil čudovite prijatelje, resnično neverjetne, kitajske prijatelje, evropske prijatelje in ameriške prijatelje z vsega sveta.
Ne morem vam povedati, kako zelo mi je bilo všeč. Kar mi je bilo všeč pri učiteljih in metodi poučevanja, je bila velika prilagodljivost. Druga stvar, ki mi je bila všeč pri poučevanju, je bila kombinacija klasičnega učenja iz učbenikov in gibanja na prostem. Bilo mi je zelo všeč! Rad spoznavam druge učence. Vsi imajo isti cilj, in sicer izboljšati svojo kitajščino. Kunming je veliko mesto, vendar je tukaj zelo varno živeti. Druga stvar, ki mi je bila všeč pri Keatsu, je ideja, da ti ljudje tukaj pomagajo. Ne morem ga dovolj priporočiti. Mislim, da je bila to dragocena izkušnja. Veselim se vrnitve!
V Keatsu sem se imel čudovito. Presenečen sem, koliko sem se naučil v zadnjih treh tednih, in res mi bo žal, ko bom odšel. Že načrtujemo naše naslednje potovanje, da se vrnemo, saj smo se tukaj imeli tako fantastično. Tečaj kitajščine resnično prilagodijo tebi in tvojim individualnim potrebam.
Resnično uživam v obiskovanju tega kraja, ker je zame kot nekakšen dom. To je odlično okolje za učenje mandarinščine na Kitajskem in srečanje s čudovitimi ljudmi z vsega sveta. Vsi tukaj so izjemno prijazni. Kunming ima res lepo podnebje. Je zelo dobra mešanica sodobnega mesta in tudi veliko zgodovinske kitajske kulture. Verjetno ima najčistejši zrak na Kitajskem in morda tudi najčistejšo vodo. Vabim vas, da pridete učit kitajščino v Kunming.
V šoli sem imel res čudovito izkušnjo. Učitelji so zelo, zelo prijazni. V mojem razredu vadimo govorjenje, poslušanje, branje in pisanje. Igramo igre in druge zabavne dejavnosti. Imamo izlete po mestu. Osebje v Keatsu je fenomenalno. Moja učiteljica je ena najboljših učiteljic, kar sem jih kdaj imel v svoji izobraževalni izkušnji. Vsak dan pride z nasmehom.
V Keatsu imam veliko priložnosti za vadbo naučenega. Ta šola mi je zelo všeč, ker se lahko kitajščine učim individualno, zato mislim, da je to najboljši program poglobljenega učenja na Kitajskem in moj učitelj je najboljši učitelj. Mislim, da se brez mojega učitelja moja kitajščina zagotovo ne bo toliko izboljšala. Zelo sem vesel, ker sem v Keatsu svojo kitajščino znatno izboljšal.
Resnično jih zanima, kaj nas zanima, kakšna vprašanja imamo, kakšne zahteve imamo. Nato prilagodijo vsebino našega programa kitajščine glede na situacijo. En učitelj in en učenec, tako da je enostavno ostati osredotočen med 6 urami poglobljenega pouka mandarinščine. Zelo priročno je učiti se, živeti in jesti v eni stavbi.
