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.
Kraj je zelo kul. V razredu sem z odlično skupino ljudi, zato je obiskovanje pouka zelo prijetno. Zabavno je, imamo veliko pogovorov, iger, dejavnosti. Tudi naši učitelji so zelo dobri, zelo spodbudni. Učenje kitajščine je na začetku zastrašujoče, ker imaš toliko vprašanj. Vendar bi priporočil obisk Keatsa, ker je vzdušje za učenje odlično. Je zelo sproščujoče. Priporočil bi šolo.
Torej si v prvem tednu na Keatsu nisem upal spregovoriti niti ene kitajske besede. Ugotovil sem, da se je moja raven kitajščine od takrat hitro izboljšala. Čeprav imam na Kitajskem veliko možnosti za študij, na primer nekatere druge šole ponujajo bivanje pri družinah, sem ugotovil, da se lahko poglobim v učenje kitajščine, če bivam na Keatsu.
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.
Za učenje slovnice in novih besed uporabljamo veliko iger. Imamo res dobre učitelje, zelo potrpežljive. Zelo nam pomaga. Naš razred je res prijeten in imamo ljudi z vsega sveta, iz različnih držav. V razredu pogosto razpravljamo o temah v kitajščini. Živim v študentskem domu Keats. To je zelo priročno. Ni mi treba porabiti časa za potovanja. Lahko se samo osredotočiš na učenje kitajščine.
Moja šola je neverjetna. Priporočam šolo Keats, ker je to bolj priročen način za učenje kitajščine v Kunmingu.
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.
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.
