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.
V šoli sem imel res čudovito izkušnjo. Učitelji so zelo, zelo prijazni. V mojem razredu vadimo govorjenje, poslušanje, branje in pisanje. Igramo igre in druge zabavne dejavnosti. Imamo izlete po mestu. Osebje v Keatsu je fenomenalno. Moja učiteljica je ena najboljših učiteljic, kar sem jih kdaj imel v svoji izobraževalni izkušnji. Vsak dan pride z nasmehom.
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.
Učitelji na Keatsu znajo brati učence in jim pomagati, da se z lahkoto naučijo kitajščine. Poznajo raven učencev. Sam se učim počasi, vendar so se uspeli prilagoditi mojemu učenju. Pouk so naredili zelo zabaven in zelo razburljiv. Vesel sem, da sem se ne le naučil kulture in jezika, ampak sem si tudi pridobil čudovite prijatelje, resnično neverjetne, kitajske prijatelje, evropske prijatelje in ameriške prijatelje z vsega sveta.
Na Keatsu sem študiral dva semestra. Zelo priporočam šolo Keats. Če vas zelo zanima tečaj mandarinščine na Kitajskem, vam predlagam, da pridete v Kunming. Prebivalci Kunminga so zelo prijazni. Vreme v Kunmingu je odlično. Zato vam priporočam, da se učite kitajščine na Keatsu v Kunmingu.
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.
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.
Moje ime je Sarah Fish. Stara sem 81 let. Ko sem prispela, sem znala zelo malo kitajščine. Kako naj bi preživela dva tedna intenzivnega tečaja kitajščine? Zdaj se moram smejati, ko pomislim na to. Kakšna pozitivna izkušnja je bila to! Resnično si želim, da bi lahko bili tukaj še malo dlje. Učitelji so izjemno spodbudni, najprej ocenijo, koliko nekdo zna, in nato začnejo od tam naprej.
