Improving my spoken Chinese

I started to learn Chinese in Germany without contact to anyone speaking the language. I could learn in small groups and by myself, but speaking with native speakers is a different story.

The program was really great to speak with the teacher, school staff and classmates. It improved my pronunciation was well as listening comprehension a lot - and also my confidence speaking with others. The teaching method is great and fun! It does not feel like sitting at school at all. The Safari addition was a great experience to go outside, explore local markets and discuss products and offers with vendors. I would recommend it for language students who already can speak and understand a bit.

I chose the homestay - which was different from what I expected but great! I lived with a few other students together in a different apartment in the same building. I just had dinner with the family and could practice my Chinese. The good thing about the setting is to have both - freedom to go out and discover the city or join friends for dinner as well as having the family connection to learn about the family live without being a third wheel.

I would recommend the school and program for everyone who wants to take his language learning to the next level. I definitively would do it again!
