Že en mesec sem na šoli Keats v Kunmingu, kjer poučujem kitajščino ena na ena z dvema različnima učiteljema. Resnično uživam. Oba učitelja sta zelo prijazna in potrpežljiva. Resnično sta mi pomagala izboljšati kitajščino, tako pri branju kot pri govorjenju. Zelo uživam tudi v učenju kitajščine v Kunmingu. To mesto je res lepo, vreme je lepo, zrak čist. Je eno najboljših mest na Kitajskem za učenje kitajščine.
Vloga za vizum je bila res enostavna, saj nam pri tem zelo pomaga šola Keats. Keats daje velik poudarek na pogovorni praksi, zato se naučimo veliko besedišča in načrtov za vsakdanje življenje, kar nam je zelo priročno za potovanje po mestu in pogovor s Kitajci, kar je ves smisel učenja kitajščine na Kitajskem.
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.
Obiskoval/a sem individualni intenzivni tečaj kitajščine, ki je trajal 6 ur na dan. Pouk je zelo zanimiv. Učitelji so skrbni in vsebina, ki me uči, je primerna za mojo raven. To je preprost način za učenje mandarinščine. Veliko časa imam za vadbo kitajščine v razredu. Hrana je tukaj odlična. S tem programom v Keatsu sem izboljšal/a svojo kitajščino.
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.
Vsi moji učitelji so odlični. Učitelje so usposobili zelo profesionalno. Z učiteljem se zelo hitro učim. Zelo resno jemljejo svoje učence in vem, da je vsak učitelj tak. Če iščete najboljšo kitajsko šolo na Kitajskem, vam toplo priporočam obisk Keatsa.
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.
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.
