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.
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.
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.
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.
Mislim, da je kitajsko učno okolje tukaj odlično. Metode poučevanja so tudi zelo interaktivne in zabavne. Kar mi je tukaj še posebej všeč, je dejstvo, da se moj učitelj ne drži učbenika. Veliko časa porabimo za razprave o splošnih temah, kot so kitajska kultura, svetovne novice, tipični izrazi, ki jih uporabljajo domačini. Pogovarjamo se tudi o družbenih in gospodarskih temah.
Vsi učitelji so res prijazni. Raven poučevanja na Keatsu je veliko višja. Mesto mi je res všeč. Zelo udobno se je premikati po njem. Keats toplo priporočam. To je odličen kraj za učenje kitajščine na Kitajskem. Veselimo se, da se bomo letos spet vrnili.
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.
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.
