Educators’ Testimonials
It’s been a great experience from language learning to workshops to getting out into the city. They’ve obviously learned a great deal. And so have I. I’m glad I joined the trip.
The students seem to enjoy all the activities and especially the field trips. It’s a very different, enjoyable experience than just learning Chinese in the classroom.
Our trip program was personalized so that the students could learn similar curriculum as they did back home. And everyone definitely enjoyed the field trips and food.
