My Second Language Mandarin

I joined this program to improve my Mandarin and it helped a lot. Living with a local family was new for me, but they were very kind and welcoming. Every day, I practiced Chinese with them, even when eating or watching TV. The university classes were clear, and the teachers really cared. I liked how the lessons matched daily life topics. We also had fun cultural trips like visiting temples and learning to cook dumplings. My favorite part was language exchange with local students. It helped me make friends and talk better. I felt safe and supported the whole time. Now I can speak Chinese much more confidently.
