Chinese Academic Term Course
12, 24, 36 or 48 weeks Chinese language course duration
Open to 16+ age group throughout the year
30 group language Chinese lessons per week
Max. 10 people per class
A long term Chinese language course ideal for Gap Year, post Uni or adult students looking to study Chinese in Shanghai, in depth over a number of months for maximum impact and progress. In-depth study over an extended period ensures better mastery, subtler understanding and far greater long term retention of key Chinese language skills. The morning classes focus on practical Chinese: listening and speaking. Afternoon classes allow students to learn Chinese characters and how to read and write whilst strengthening their conversational skills. This course is the perfect choice for those preparing for the HSK Chinese exam.
Standard Chinese Course
2 to 20+ weeks Chinese language course duration
Open to 16+ age group
20 group language Chinese lessons per week
Max. 10 people per class
A short term Chinese language course aimed at those who need to build on current skills or who want to learn Chinese from scratch with an immersion course in Mandarin Chinese. Short term courses concentrate on conversation skills: through speaking and listening, role-play, group dynamics and vocabulary games. Focus is also on dealing with personal experiences and daily situations. Chinese characters are studied at higher levels and also the development of the four tones. Pinyin is only used with beginners.
Intensive Chinese Course
2 to 20+ weeks Chinese language course duration
Open to 16+ age group
30 group language Chinese lessons per week
Max. 10 people per class
