Chinese Full-board Summer Camp in China for 8-18 Years old

Our daughter was adopted from China, and we have always placed great emphasis on her learning of Chinese language and Chinese culture. Through a friend's recommendation, we learned about RISH, which offers a full-time, fully immersed Chinese summer camp. It provides an opportunity to learn Chinese, as well as excursions in iconic tourist cities like Shanghai and Hangzhou. It also allows children from around the world who are interested in Chinese language to learn and live together, which we believed would be a valuable experience for our daughter.
Initially, we planned to send her to the RISH summer camp in 2020, but due to COVID-19, we postponed the plan for three years. As soon as RISH had resumed its summer camp in 2023, we immediately enrolled our daughter.
During the camp the counselors sent me photos of my child's learning and outdoor activities every day. They responded promptly to any questions I had, regardless of the time difference, which had deeply touched me.
My daughter has participated in many summer camps in other countries, and I believe RISH is the best one she has experienced so far. I think if you are interested in China, you can participate in RISH without worrying about your Chinese proficiency. Once again, thanks to RISH summer camp!

My son visited China for the first time, with zero Chinese language skills and not very proficient in English. Despite this, he had a strong desire to explore China. As I couldn't accompany him, I researched various Chinese summer camps on internet for him. In the end, we chose RISH, and it turned out to be a bright decision.
The staff at RISH, learning that my son was a first-time visitor to China, provided detailed information about the whole process, from airport pickup to drop-off after the camp, every step explained in detail.
The RISH staff consists of camp leaders, daily camp life coordinators, and Chinese teachers dedicated to students' everyday activities. These staff members stay with the students throughout the camp, ensuring that any issues can be promptly addressed.
I am grateful to the teachers at RISH for providing my son with a perfect journey in China. He made good friends with children from other countries and returned home with great joy, sharing stories of his adventures in China every day. I heard that RISH is planning a tour to Beijing next year, and my son is already eagerly preparing to participate again.

This summer camp really helped me improving Chinese in a better way, all thanks to the super helpful staff and teachers. Even though it was my first time coming to China, they made me feeling safe and comfortable whenever I needed any help.
They explained all the activities and trips so well that I learned a ton about daily life there. It also boosted my Chinese skills, and now I'm excited to learn even more. The courses are useful and interesting. I'll definitely be back to make more friends and keep on learning Chinese.

We want to express our appreciation to the instructors and staff at RISH for providing an exceptional experience for our daughter during the Chinese Summer Camp. She is 10 years old and she participated in the full camp for three weeks in 2023. She grew up in a German, English and Chinese speaking family but before entering in this program, she had minimal exposure to the Chinese language. However, after completing the three-week camp, she acquired a fundamental grasp of Chinese for daily life and routines. She was also more confident in actively reponding to inquiries and requests in Chinese. We also found the school environment to be comfortable and inviting. All the staff are nice, friendly, and polite. We are considering about enrolling both our daughter and younger son in the same camp next summer!

My child has been learning Chinese for six years, and I've been searching for a suitable Chinese summer camp for him in China. Finally, I chose RISH. The camp is located on the campus of a well-known university in China, which is very convenient with a hotel, convinient stores, and sports facilities. The children stay in the hotel on the campus,newly decorated and fully equipped. The camp's teachers are very responsible, sending me daily photos of my child's learning, outdoor activities, and life at the camp. My child came back very happy, sharing many interesting stories from the summer camp and Interesting Encounters. He has improved his Chinese significantly after spending 20 days in the summer camp. I am very grateful for RISH's summer camp experience.

My son went to China for the first time, so I spent a long time researching and carefully comparing several different summer camps online. In the end, I chose RISH because they were the only camp located on a university campus, providing a sense of security. Although he stayed on campus, it wasn't in student dormitories; instead, he stayed in a hotel on the campus with excellent accommodation conditions. My son told me that during the summer camp, he had a great place to stay, good food, lots of fun activities, and he made many new friends, which made him very happy.I am very fortunate that I chose the RISH summer camp for my son!

I want to express my appreciation for the fantastic experience my 12-year-old had at RISH Chinese summer camp. It truely exceeded our expectations. Learning Chinese at RISH camp was enjoyable for my kid, with games and activites that made every day something to look forward to. My daughter really adored her teacher, who made the languge learning not just effective but fun. Thank you for providing such a positive and memorable experience for my child. She said she would come to your camp again next year!

When my parents told me that they would send me to China for Chinese summer camp, I thought it was a missed holiday. But in fact, the summer camp I attended, RISH Chinese summer camp was a good combination between the language class and summer vacation. During the summer camp in Shanghai, we have a whole day's classes, but it's not simple grammar classes. RISH focuses on activities that enable us to practice what we have learned. We also carried out some cultural visits, liberated myself from classroom and made me enjoy the happiness of the holiday. These activities are all related to learning Chinese language and culture. Whether it's class, leisure, visit or even daily life, it's all for my Chinese improvement. What I like the most about this camp is that my Chinese level has progressed a lot without my realizing it!
