Complete Immersion

I really enjoyed my experience at CLI and felt my Chinese improving day by day. Other than my daily calls with my wife I was speaking Chinese all day. Outside of class the staff and teachers patiently spoke with me in Chinese which was just as valuable as the 4 hours of class each day. Each day I would look forward to the delicious food and interesting conversations to be had at lunch. Then on the weekends there were both formal and informal activities with both the students and younger staff enabling further Chinese practice.

The dorm rooms were very large and comfortable. Furthermore if I had any issues with my dorm they were addressed immediately.
