Description

Beijing, or Peking as it used to be known, provides the perfect backdrop for your language course in Mandarin. Learn in structured classes then build up your confidence whilst practising your conversational skills on the locals!

* What Will I Be Doing?

You will undertake an intensive Mandarin study course, studying 3-4 hours a day, and during your time in Beijing you will be able to learn not only the language but also the history and culture of your host country. Your course will help you develop your written, verbal, and reading abilities, and working alongside experienced native teachers will ensure that you pick up authentic pronunciation and comprehension skills.

In the afternoons you will have plenty of time to explore the city with must-see sights such as the Forbidden City and central shopping district close by. You will be so well looked after by the local staff, your colleagues and your new friends that the only problem you're likely to face is deciding where you want to explore next!
