La mia esperienza a Chengdu

La mia esperienza a Chengdu è stata molto bella! Uno dei posti migliori che abbiamo visitato, anche a livello di estetica, secondo me è il People's Park.

Il campus è vicino alla metro e al centro e offre vari servizi di benvenuto, che ti fanno sentire ben accolto.

La scuola in sé offre corsi utilissimi all'apprendimento del cinese e fa si che gli alunni comprendano a pieno cosa si sta imparando.

Gli insegnanti sono molto disponibili e fanno sì di aiutarti al momento del bisogno.

Bella esperienza, la raccomando a tutti!

English:
My experience in Chengdu was wonderful! One of the best places we visited, even aesthetically, in my opinion was People's Park.

The campus is close to the subway and the city center and offers various welcome services that make you feel welcome.

The school itself offers courses that are very useful for learning Chinese and ensure students fully understand what they are learning.

The teachers are very helpful and are willing to help when needed.

A wonderful experience, I recommend it to everyone!

La mia esperienza a Chengdu

È stata sicuramente un’esperienza molto positiva, non solo perché ho avuto l’opportunità di visitare questo paese, ma anche perché ho avuto delle ottime persone ad aiutarmi. Tutto lo staff è stato carinissimo fin dal primo giorno e si sono sempre offerti di darci una mano qualora ne avevamo bisogno. Negli alloggi c’è tutto quello di cui una persona ha bisogno e il cibo è squisito. Vi sentirete subito a casa non appena entrerete nei vostri alloggi, e tutto lo staff sarà lì ad accogliervi. La consiglio tantissimo a tutti!❤️

English:
It was definitely a very positive experience, not only because I had the opportunity to visit this country, but also because I had wonderful people to help me. The entire staff was incredibly kind from day one and always offered to lend a hand whenever we needed it. The accommodations have everything a person needs, and the food is delicious. You'll immediately feel at home as soon as you enter your accommodations, and the entire staff will be there to welcome you. I highly recommend it to everyone! ❤️

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
Probabilmente la città in sé. A differenza di dove vivo io, qui è tutto molto più modernizzato, infatti non appena misi piede fuori mi sentii piccola in una città così grande. Nonostante tutto, è stata una piacevolissima sensazione❤️

La mia esperienza a Chengdu

Chengdu è una città molto bella, l’organizzazione della scuola aiuta molto a migliorare l’esperienza, dato che le professoresse sono molto preparate e ci aiutano a raggiungere i posti di maggiore interesse della città, come le torri gemelle o le bamboo towers.

La città di chengdu è considerata la “capitale dei panda”, quindi troverete questi graziosi animali dovunque.

La mia esperienza è stata fantastica, tra cibo squisito e monumenti spettacolari.'

Consiglio a tutti un’esperienza del genere perché personalmente mi sono trovato benissimo e la rifarei volentieri!

English:
Chengdu is a beautiful city. The school's organization greatly enhances the experience, as the teachers are very knowledgeable and help us reach the city's most interesting sites, such as the Twin Towers and the Bamboo Towers.

Chengdu is considered the "panda capital," so you'll find these cute animals everywhere.

My experience was fantastic, with delicious food and spectacular monuments.

I recommend this experience to everyone because I personally had a great time and would gladly do it again!

Un’esperienza fantastica ! Organizzazione impeccabile e supporto costante . Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti . 5 stelle meritatissime! Chengdu è una città molto pulita, il posto migliore che abbiamo visitato è stato “ people’s park “, con tutti i fiori, cibi locali e tradizione. La scuola è luminosa è molto vicina alla metro e quindi si trova in una posizione molto favorevole. Le insegnanti aiutano e danno assistenza per qualsiasi cosa. Vengono offerti pasti buoni e tradizionali .

Chengdu is a very clean city, the best place we visited was "People's Park", with all the flowers, local foods and tradition. The school is bright and very close to the subway, so it is in a very convenient location. The teachers are helpful and offer assistance with everything. Good, traditional meals are served.

LA MIA ESPERIENZA A CHENGDU

È stata un esperienza inaspettata per me. Mi sono trovata benissimo con il mangiare nonostante non sia abituata a mangiare così speziato. Abbiamo conosciuto tutte persone gentili con noi. Ci hanno fatto vedere, nonostante il poco tempo, le cose più tipiche di Chengdu(museo, spettacolo teatrale, street food, la riserva naturale dei panda…). La mia insegnante di corso Kiki é stata molto carina con noi, e ci ha insegnato moltissime cose. L’unico problema è stata la lingua ma alla fine sono venuta qui ad imparare e sicuramente mi è servito. Grazie Keats!

English:
It was an unexpected experience for me. I enjoyed the food, even though I'm not used to spicy food. We met all the people who were kind to us. Despite our limited time, they showed us the most typical things to see in Chengdu (museum, theater show, street food, the panda reserve, etc.). My teacher, Kiki, was very kind to us and taught us so much. The only problem was the language, but in the end I came here to learn, and it definitely helped. Thanks, Keats!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?
Siamo andati a vedere il loro tradizionale spettacolo teatrale. È stato bellissimo soprattutto la rapidità con la quale cambiavano le maschere.

La mia esperienza a Chengdu

Chengdu é una città molto bella, molto poco turistica quindi é facile sentirsi una persona del posto. Assolutamente da vedere sono: Twins Towers, Bamboo towers e il parco dei panda. Il posto più interessante che ho visitato fin’ora sono le Twins Towers perché i giochi di luce mi hanno affascinato. La scuola é molto comoda dato che si trova all’interno del campus. Il corso a cui ho partecipato era in gruppo e molto dinamico e interattivo. Gli insegnanti sono sempre disponibili! Ottima esperienza la consiglierei!

English:
Chengdu is a beautiful city, not very touristy, so it's easy to feel like a local. Must-sees include the Twin Towers, Bamboo Towers, and the panda park. The most interesting place I've visited so far is the Twin Towers because I was fascinated by the light displays. The school is very convenient as it's located on campus. The course I attended was in a group and very dynamic and interactive. The teachers are always available! Excellent experience, I would recommend it!

Pros
  • Esperienza unica
  • Gruppo unito
  • Insegnati disponibili

La mia esperienza a Chengdu

Chengdu è una città molto bella e molto interessante, in una settimana abbiamo visitato molti posti interessanti e molte bancarelle su cui provare cibi tipici. La mia esperienza preferita sarà ovviamente quella di andare a vedere i panda nello zoo!! La scuola di keats è molto bella, tipica del posto e con tutte le conformità possibili. Grazie alla scuola fatta dalle insegnanti di keats sono riuscita ad imparare cose nuove e ripassare quelle su cui ero più incerta. Esperienza stupenda che vorrei tanto rifare.

English:
Chengdu is a beautiful and interesting city. In a week, we visited many interesting places and many stalls where we could try typical foods. My favorite experience will obviously be going to see the pandas in the zoo! The Keats School is very nice, typical of the area, and with all the necessary standards. Thanks to the school run by Keats' teachers, I was able to learn new things and brush up on what I was most uncertain about. It was a wonderful experience that I would love to do again.

What was your funniest moment?
il momento più divertente è stato durante la lezione di kunfu fatta con la mia classe

My experience in Chengdu

The experience was amazing. The course very good and useful for review old grammar verbs and Chengdu is a wonderful city. Teacher were always available and kind and was really nice eat the typical Chinese food instead of European food in the canteen of the campus. The activities were funny but useful to go deep in the Chinese culture. With grammar lessons, i really improve my Chinese-skills. For me its a must experience if you study and like Chinese and their environment and I really recommend it!!!

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
the most unfamiliar thing that i ate was surely the chicken feet and for an italian it was really strange
