China Internship program- I had a great time

January 13, 2024by: Jia Ming Zheng - United States

Program: GAC Chinese Language Immersion Program

10

I used this program to find an architecture internship in Shanghai for the summer. They helped me set up interviews, making the process fast. The people at the company were great, and I'll forever cherish the memories with them. My goals included learning Chinese and exploring the city, and they assisted by finding nearby Chinese lessons and providing a guide. Initially nervous about having someone show me around, it turned out to be a great experience. We, both K-pop enthusiasts of the same age, explored ktown, enjoyed great food, and took nice photos. It was an amazing experience, and I wish I could be back in the city. As a Chinese-American, I was initially scared about not speaking Chinese well in a new city, but this program enhanced my experience. I fell in love with Shanghai and it’s architecture!

Hey everyone, I'm Jackson Walker from Germany, and I'm 23 years old. This spring, I arrived in Beijing, China, because I wanted to learn Chinese. After seeing an ad from GAC online, I got in touch with them. Their service is really awesome; they handled everything from my visa to organizing my Chinese classes, taking care of every little detail. The accommodation GAC arranged for me is great—I really like the room. It's clean and tidy, with all the basic amenities like a good shower, which is super important to me. They even sorted out all the essentials I needed, including a subway card and a phone card ready for me right after I landed. They also patiently showed me how to use them. Whenever I ran into any issues living in Beijing, GAC was there to help me out. People here are incredibly warm and friendly, and through GAC’s Chinese language program, I’ve made a lot of friends from different countries. Our Chinese teachers are very professional, and by also practicing with my Chinese friends regularly, my Mandarin has improved quickly. I really appreciate all the help from GAC. For those of you who want to come to China, I highly recommend getting in touch with GAC. They'll make your trip to China a breeze.
