Chinese Language School in Beijing for Young People
Course Details
We offer standard Chinese courses for all students which consist of 4 lessons per day from Monday to Friday. Classes begin in the morning and finish early in the day so that students have plenty of time to explore the city with us on our exciting activity program. During this time out and around Beijing, students get the chance to practise what they have learned in class in real-life situations.
Our native teachers at the Chinese school in Beijing provide modern teaching materials for the duration of the course. They use open and dynamic methods that encourage participation and communication, as well as fun! These include games, role play, debates and discussions. All methods involve speaking in Chinese from the beginning which commits the language to memory more easily.
The teachers at the Chinese school in Beijing are dedicated to helping students have fun and feel comfortable while they learn. They are always nearby for any questions or help students need linguistically or otherwise.
You will be sent an online language assessment test to complete before you arrive in Beijing. This allows us to place you in the right group for your level and for our teachers to design the courses based on the individual needs of their students. You will receive a certificate of completion before you leave the Chinese language school in Beijing.
