V intenzivnem individualnem tečaju kitajščine lahko izberete metodo učenja, ki vam je všeč. Tečaj kitajščine v majhnih skupinah na Kitajskem v Keatsu poteka po učbeniku HSK. Učitelji pogosto zbirajo povratne informacije od učencev, poslušajo naše zahteve in mnenja. Občutek imam, da je moja ustna raven boljša kot prej.
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.
Na Keatsu je zelo udobno študirati. Učitelji so zelo prijazni. Vabim vas, da pridete študirati kitajščino na Kitajsko na Keats.
Moja šola je neverjetna. Priporočam šolo Keats, ker je to bolj priročen način za učenje kitajščine v Kunmingu.
Res sem užival v tečaju kitajščine na Kitajskem v Keatsu in v srečanju z učitelji tukaj in učenci. V razredu se zelo zabavamo. To je res odlična šola za učenje z dobrimi metodami poučevanja in res dobrim učbenikom, primeri in igrami ter vsem.
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.
To je moj drugi obisk. Lani sem bil prav tako približno 12 tednov. Tokrat sem prišel na 13 tednov poletnega programa na Kitajskem. Razlog, zakaj si še posebej želim priti v to šolo, so individualni tečaji. Tako sem lahko izboljšal svojo raven in se kitajsko naučil hitreje kot v skupinskih tečajih. Če bom imel prihodnje leto spet priložnost priti, bom zagotovo prišel.
Keats se mi je zdel zelo dober, učitelji so odlični in učence jemljejo resno. Kunming je najboljše mesto za učenje mandarinščine na Kitajskem. Okolje je čudovito, ni onesnaženja. Kakovost zraka je odlična, lepo vreme. Ljudje tukaj so zelo prijazni. Vsak dan hodim na tečaje. Pri učenju kitajščine se v Keatsu počutim udobno. Naučil sem se toliko stvari, čeprav sem v Keatsu študiral le 2 meseca. Z učiteljem sem res zadovoljen. Za nas tujce je Keats najboljša kitajska šola na Kitajskem. Zato bi Keats vsem toplo priporočil.
