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.
To je bilo opazno, ker sem spoznal veliko ljudi, ki sem jih prvič srečal lani, da so se letos vrnili v Keats. Poučevanje je bilo fantastično. Učitelji skrbno pripravijo vsako lekcijo. Mislim, da je ta individualni pristop res odličen način za hitro izboljšanje vaše ravni kitajščine ter povečanje vaše samozavesti in tekočega znanja jezika.
Moje ime je Sarah Fish. Stara sem 81 let. Ko sem prispela, sem znala zelo malo kitajščine. Kako naj bi preživela dva tedna intenzivnega tečaja kitajščine? Zdaj se moram smejati, ko pomislim na to. Kakšna pozitivna izkušnja je bila to! Resnično si želim, da bi lahko bili tukaj še malo dlje. Učitelji so izjemno spodbudni, najprej ocenijo, koliko nekdo zna, in nato začnejo od tam naprej.
Kunming je fantastično mesto. Vreme je tukaj odlično. Šola je odlična. Inštruktorji so zelo ustrežljivi, zelo prijazni. Vsem, ki iščejo kitajsko jezikovno šolo na Kitajskem, toplo priporočam, da pridejo sem študirat. Kunming in Keatsova šola sta veliko boljša kot kateri koli drug kraj.
Našla sem šolo Keats in zelo sem vesela, da sem to storila. Ko se v šoli Keats učiš kitajščine na Kitajskem, je zate popolnoma poskrbljeno. Moj učitelj je res odličen in postaneva čudovita prijatelja.
V Kunming prihajam, ker se mi zdi okolje v Kunmingu boljše, in slišal sem, da je tudi šola Keats boljša. Všeč mi je tečaj kitajščine v majhnih skupinah, ker se moji sošolci pridno učijo in so naši učitelji zelo dobri. Všeč mi je metoda poučevanja Keatsa, ker so mi všeč dejavnosti v Keatsu. Mislim, da je Yunnan še posebej lepa kitajska provinca.
Vsi moji sošolci ostanejo skupaj eno leto in zelo smo se izboljšali! Učitelji na Keatsu so vsi zelo super. Radi organizirajo veliko dejavnosti, ki nam pomagajo pri učenju kitajščine. Všeč mi je Keats! Všeč mi je Kunming!
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.
