More than gaining knowledge and broadening mind, all sections of this Beijing summer camp program are to start an interaction-oriented mandarin learning experience abroad.
1) Morning language classesto build a good foundation of Mandarin Chinese phonetic systems(pinyin) and Chinese character structures.
2) Afternoon electives designed to provide different perspectives of Chinese culture including TaiQi Quan, Chinese calligraphy and painting, Chinese cooking and more.
3) Weekend cultural activities leading students to experience China's cultural heritage, the Chinese life-style and many chances to meet new friends abroad.
4) Immersion programs encourage students to apply their acquired language skills (speaking, listening, and writing) in real life. To name a few, they will practice how to negotiate in the market with the knowledge learned in their Mandarin language classes, cook their own Chinese food with what they get from the market, present performances featuring Chinese culture and record their experience in China by writing letters to friends or parents |
