The Great “xiangsheng” artist, Hou Baolin, once made a joke about the Henan dialect. He said the dialect is China’s most concise because, you usually only need one word for anything. For instance, if someone goes to the hathroom, the conversation might go as follows: “who?” “Me?” “What?” “Pee!” The most frequent word used in […]

In the Chinese language, “黄色” (huáng sè) means “yellow”. However, the meaning of “黄色电影huáng sè diàn yǐn?”, “电影” means “film”. The whole phrase doesn’t mean “yellow films”, which is a confusing phrase. Actually it means “pornographic movie”. And “黄金huáng jīn” refers to the golden. So how about the meaning of “黄金周huáng jīn zhōu” (周—week)？ In […]

Na Keatsu je zelo udobno študirati. Učitelji so zelo prijazni. Vabim vas, da pridete študirati kitajščino na Kitajsko na Keats.
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.
Ena stvar, ki mi je bila res všeč, je bila, da sem lahko sodelovala z učiteljem/učiteljico pri pripravi individualnega učnega načrta. Druga res lepa stvar je, da živiš v šoli, kjer se počutiš popolnoma varno. Vedno imaš skupino ljudi, ki so pripravljeni početi stvari s tabo ob vikendih ali zvečer. Postrežejo ti vse 3 obroke na dan, hrana je bila odlična.
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.
Sem podiplomski študent, ki dela doktorat na Univerzi Columbia. Osredotočili smo se lahko na govorjenje, še posebej na govorjenje v slogu intervjujev, in izboljšali smo moje znanje branja in pisanja kitajščine, tako da se bom lahko, ko se vrnem na Columbio, udeležil formalnih tečajev kitajščine. To je bila res dobra izkušnja in resnično imam rad svojega učitelja.
Ne morem vam povedati, kako zelo mi je bilo všeč. Kar mi je bilo všeč pri učiteljih in metodi poučevanja, je bila velika prilagodljivost. Druga stvar, ki mi je bila všeč pri poučevanju, je bila kombinacija klasičnega učenja iz učbenikov in gibanja na prostem. Bilo mi je zelo všeč! Rad spoznavam druge učence. Vsi imajo isti cilj, in sicer izboljšati svojo kitajščino. Kunming je veliko mesto, vendar je tukaj zelo varno živeti. Druga stvar, ki mi je bila všeč pri Keatsu, je ideja, da ti ljudje tukaj pomagajo. Ne morem ga dovolj priporočiti. Mislim, da je bila to dragocena izkušnja. Veselim se vrnitve!
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.
Tukaj sem se imel res odlično. Veliko sem se učil s svojim učiteljem, ki je bil fantastičen. Šola Keats se je zelo potrudila, da je svojim učencem zagotovila res dobre učitelje, katerih osebnost se odlično ujema. Resnično uživam v učenju kitajščine na Keatsu in se bom zagotovo vrnil.
