Go Abroad China Reviews

Hello, my name is Kyrra White. I'm 17 years old. I attend Bentley University, where I major in international business. Specifically, I am majoring in Chinese. I have studied Mandarin Chinese for four years, and I came to China to further my language studies.

I am participating in the Beijing Language and Culture University Chinese program. It's been awesome so far. Go Abroad China has really been supportive. I found out about Go Abroad China online, and although I didn't know much about it, I thought, why not? It was a great choice. I really enjoy the program and the support I have received.

Meeting people from around the world was pretty awesome. I've never had a class where there are people from all around the world in one spot. Literally, every continent was represented; it was awesome. Also, my teachers were very nice and helpful after class. If I needed any extra help, they were there for me. It was really good. I completed my goal, which was to get better in Chinese, and I have improved a lot. This experience was unique because when I came to China through a program, I had someone there to pick me up and take me to my host parents. I just had people there to help me, and that was different for me, but I thought it was great. I loved it. Also, living with a host family was pretty awesome. I really got to dive in and immerse myself in Chinese culture.

Because of Go Abroad China, my classes were set up, and I had very comfortable living conditions. I've been able to go farther in my language studies. My major is international business with a focus on Chinese, which works specifically with Chinese and American business relations. Knowing Chinese is very important for me, and I feel like I've gotten a lot farther than I would have if I stayed home. Being here and immersing myself in Chinese culture has allowed me to figure out where I want to go in the future.

The host family was really cool. I loved my host family. I also had host grandparents, which was very comfortable for me, and I felt safe. That's important.

I went to the Great Wall of China, which was really awesome. I had done it before, but this time was a completely different experience. I went with my classmates, and it was really great. I also went to Mongolia for a field trip. That was a really fun trip, well-planned, and I felt safe the entire time. It was really great.

I would recommend Go Abroad China to my friends. The classroom is different from what I'm used to, but I like it. At first, I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but once I got here, I realized that I was in good hands. I felt comfortable, and people were there to help me, teach me how to get to school every day, and help with simple things.

I'd like to thank you a lot for this experience. I really appreciate everything. You guys are a great team. Thank you.

My name is Jean Pirenne. I joined the GoAbroadChina program and participated from the beginning of January to the 19th of February. My experience was very good. My host family was very nice. They mentioned that their screening process is very rigorous, and I believe them because the host family was really good. I can't say anything bad about them, so that was a very good point. I was very satisfied as well with my Chinese lessons. From what I've heard, they enrolled me in one of the most well-known and recommended private Chinese learning schools in Beijing, and it was very, very useful. I learned a lot of Chinese.

I started learning Chinese when I was about 15 or 16 years old, mainly because my dad encouraged me to do it. But I ended up really liking it, so I continued doing it. I think the value lies in several things. Obviously, there's a practical value in helping with your future career. That aside, it's also really fun. It really exercises your brain more than any other language, I think, because of all the visual recognition you have to use and all the characters you have to learn. It's a really rewarding experience, and even though it's hard, if you stick to it and your Chinese slowly improves, it can be very rewarding.

GoAbrodChina has always been very helpful, particularly Zoe. She was always there if I needed anything, answered my questions, and made me feel very welcomed and safe. I would certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to spend time in China, learn Chinese, or have an internship. I recommend it to anyone.

I'm from the USA and I'm currently here in Shanghai for 3 months for a internship as well as individual Chinese lessons. I came here through GoAbroadChina and they were really helpful with the whole process they helped me find a company that was because I'm not super fluent in Mandarin so they helped me find a company that was based internationally and had a firm here, so they were really accommodating for that and it's also helping me a lot with my Chinese being able to kind of communicate a little bit in English too. They also help me find my individual lessons which was really helpful, the teacher is super nice. She caters towards your needs so some of my goals include being able to speak daily with my family members as well as with like locals so that's been really helpful and then they've also been really helpful just with getting me settle in - so picking me up from the airport, making sure that I knew my way around, and just having someone there constantly if you need help. Just to message or if you have any simple questions is so much better than just throwing yourself out there and not knowing anything so that was really helpful.

To begin, with I got in touch with them about a year ago and then GoAbroadChina sent me an accepting email. I was very fortunate to have GoAbroadChina as they helped me sort out my accommodation, my visa as well as a lot of other extra services that I would require. They arranged airport pick-up, my SIM card so I could be able to get internet and communicate with anyone.

GoAbroadChina also helped set up Chinese courses, set up tours for me to explore China. I actually visited Beijing with GoAbroadChina guides and it was an amazing experience.

GoAbroadChina also helped me sort out any issues that I had. I had a few problems visiting the hospital and they made sure that I was able go to the hospital with the translator. I've had an amazing experience with GoAbroadChina and I really really would recommend.

My name is Malin Stifler. I'm from Orlando Florida and I joined Go Abroad China's high school Chinese language immersion program for two weeks.

I am doing it with my sister and we are in Beijing staying with a host family. Every Monday through Friday from 9:00 to 12:00, we attend language classes and we take two classes. The first one is easier and then the second one is a bit harder but it's still really fun. I've been learning a lot from both of the classes and my Mandarin is improved a lot. It was really great to be immersed in the culture and in the language to learn so much and overall it was just a really great experience in the classes. We made a lot of new friends and we met so many people from so many different countries. The first class I think it really helped me with some like basic vocabulary and basic grammar and then the second class even though it's a bit harder it helped my comprehension a lot. I learned at a much quicker pace than I would have in the US. It was just a super great opportunity.

The school was only a few subway stops away and there's subway so fast here so it was not a problem taking it at all. The area that the school was very international so it was really cool to see all the different restaurants and see so many foreigners from different places. They're just cool to interact with everybody.

In the afternoons we would come home or we would go sightseeing. We went to the temple of heaven in the Forbidden City and so many other cool places like temples and places. Because Beijing is so big and has so many different places to visit and on the weekends we would hang out with the host family and the I always talk to the little girl and the mom.

We got to visit a lot of like daily Beijing life stuff like the supermarket and like the mall which are both really big and totally different from what we have in America. Being immersed here is just such an amazing experience and if I had the chance I would definitely do it again. I definitely take language classes again so I can meet all of these so cool like people there were so many different places.

Overall is just so cool being in Beijing and I had a really great time being here even though it was only for two weeks. I've learned so much I wish I could stay longer but overall the trip was really great.

Hey everyone, I'm Jackson Walker from Germany, and I'm 23 years old. This spring, I arrived in Beijing, China, because I wanted to learn Chinese. After seeing an ad from GAC online, I got in touch with them. Their service is really awesome; they handled everything from my visa to organizing my Chinese classes, taking care of every little detail.

The accommodation GAC arranged for me is great—I really like the room. It's clean and tidy, with all the basic amenities like a good shower, which is super important to me. They even sorted out all the essentials I needed, including a subway card and a phone card ready for me right after I landed. They also patiently showed me how to use them.

Whenever I ran into any issues living in Beijing, GAC was there to help me out. People here are incredibly warm and friendly, and through GAC’s Chinese language program, I’ve made a lot of friends from different countries. Our Chinese teachers are very professional, and by also practicing with my Chinese friends regularly, my Mandarin has improved quickly.

I really appreciate all the help from GAC. For those of you who want to come to China, I highly recommend getting in touch with GAC. They'll make your trip to China a breeze.

Hey, I'm Mark. Thanks to GAC, I snagged a finance internship gig here in Shanghai, China. Seriously, finding GAC was like hitting the jackpot! They not only hooked me up with a finance gig that's right up my alley but also made the whole process a breeze. My game plan? Get some real-world work experience before hitting the books at university.

From the moment I landed, GAC had my back. They sorted out my phone, subway cards – you name it! And whenever I hit a snag, their team was on it, making sure I felt right at home in this new environment. Oh, and Saturdays? It's all about the fun – GAC plans out cool activities like food adventures and sports, making every weekend a blast.

The internship itself? Awesome! Met some great folks, and the company GAC hooked me up with? Total pros. I've learned heaps about finance and how the industry ticks. Every day feels like a learning adventure, and I'm soaking it all up like a sponge.

Thinking about interning in China? GAC's got your back! They not only sort out the logistics but also make you feel like family. With GAC in my corner, I know I've made the right call. This journey's been one for the books – unforgettable and full of eye-opening experiences!

I came to China for the Internship in Finance in an investment company. I chose China because Chinese economy is booming and it is the best destination now. I decided to use GoAbroadChina services because their program was the most suitable for me and offered more options for Internship Programs. Also those extra activities GoAbroadChina provides are more tailored for foreign young people. I am double majoring in Real Estate and Finance, my Investment Internship really completes my academic backgrounds. I’m sure my internship will help my future development.

I really liked GoAbroadChina program a lot and my experience was so much more than I expected. I wish I could stay more and explore more, because there are so many things to see. My Home Stay family was very nice and I’d say the whole thing was once in a life time experience. My Chinese classes were very helpful, especially because there is great environment to practice. After staying in China and meeting many people I’ve really started to think about future career in China and keep learning Chinese language.
