The Best Decision of My Gap Year

This program was everything I hoped for and more. I spent my gap year learning Chinese, interning at a local company, and volunteering on weekends. Each experience helped me grow—personally and professionally. I made friends from around the world, improved my Mandarin, and gained confidence living independently in a completely new environment. Go Abroad China made everything seamless, from accommodation to cultural trips. It truly felt like I got to see and live the real China. I would love to highly recommend GAC to every student wants to explore China..

An Authentic and Enriching Mandarin Learning Experience!

Joining the “Learn Chinese at China's Top University with Homestay” program was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The classes were intensive and well-structured, taught by experienced instructors who genuinely cared about our progress. What made it even more special was the homestay experience – my host family was incredibly warm, patient, and welcoming. I not only improved my Mandarin rapidly but also experienced Chinese culture in the most authentic way possible, from daily family meals to celebrating local festivals together. The program's balance of academics, cultural activities, and support made it both educational and unforgettable. Highly recommended for anyone serious about learning Mandarin and immersing themselves in Chinese life!

A Valuable Cultural and Language Learning Experience

I had a great experience with the Chinese language program at one of China’s top universities. The classes were well-structured and the teachers were knowledgeable and supportive. The homestay added a meaningful cultural layer to my learning—I got to practice Mandarin daily and experience real local life. There were also regular cultural activities and excursions which helped me explore more of China.

The only reason I'm giving four stars instead of five is that I wish the placement process for homestays had been a bit more transparent upfront. But overall, it was a rewarding and immersive program that I’d recommend to anyone serious about improving their Chinese and understanding Chinese culture.

A Valuable Step Into the Corporate World

This internship program offered by Go Abroad China was a solid introduction to working within a global corporate environment. Being placed at a Fortune 500 company in China gave me the chance to build professional skills, gain international work experience, and understand how large-scale businesses operate.

The support team was responsive and helpful from application to placement, and the cultural activities and Mandarin lessons added great value to the experience. I appreciated the exposure to Chinese business culture and networking opportunities with professionals in my field.

I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 only because I would have appreciated a bit more structure in the onboarding process at the host company. That said, it was an incredibly rewarding experience that I’d definitely recommend to anyone looking to grow professionally and explore life in China.

The Perfect Blend of Language Learning and Cultural Immersion

This program exceeded all my expectations! Studying Chinese at one of China’s top universities gave me access to high-quality language instruction with experienced and friendly teachers who really cared about our progress. The curriculum was intensive but manageable, and I saw noticeable improvement in my Mandarin within just a few weeks.

The homestay experience was the highlight—my host family was incredibly welcoming and made me feel like part of the family. Speaking Mandarin with them every day helped reinforce what I learned in class and gave me real-life context to the language.

Between the cultural excursions, support from the Go Abroad China team, and the warm, immersive environment, I couldn’t have asked for a better way to learn Chinese. I highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to study Mandarin seriously while experiencing authentic Chinese life.

Truly Immersive and Life-Changing Language Experience

I couldn’t be happier with my decision to join the GAC Chinese Language Immersion Program. From day one, everything was well-organized—from airport pickup to orientation and class placement. The language courses were top-notch, taught by experienced instructors who made the lessons engaging and effective.

What really stood out for me was how immersive the whole experience was. Living with a local host family helped me practice Mandarin daily and understand Chinese customs on a deeper level. The cultural activities and excursions added an exciting dimension to the learning journey.

I’ve made incredible progress in my language skills and gained a greater appreciation for Chinese culture. I highly recommend this program to anyone who’s serious about becoming fluent in Mandarin while exploring one of the most fascinating countries in the world!
