Great Experience !

January 14, 2025by: Nigel Rodda - United StatesProgram: Mandarin Youth Summer Camp

Our experience with Omeida was excellent! My 16-year-old son attended for 3 weeks (2 week summer camp + 1 week private tuition), and was thoroughly impressed by the quality of instruction. The teachers are top-notch—highly skilled, patient, and deeply committed to helping students succeed in learning Chinese. The three-week camp provided an immersive environment where he could fully engage with the language. The instructors covered essential grammar points, practical vocabulary, and all four key language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The lessons were well-structured and paced to match the students' different learning speeds, ensuring that everyone could keep up and feel confident. What truly stood out was the supportive atmosphere created by the teachers. They were always encouraging, readily answering questions, and offering constructive feedback. My son felt comfortable and motivated to learn, which made a significant difference in his progress. He also helped teach English to Chinese native students in his spare time. He enjoyed staying in the dorms with Chinese kids where he made new friends and practiced Chinese.

Wish I could have stayed for longer

I came to Omeida for a week and I wished I could have stayed longer. The classes are small and teachers are very qualified, the learning experience is excellent. The building has a cosy coffee corner with mini library and study area, a very nice place to get together. All in all amazing value for money. Such great memories!

Yangshuo is a beautiful area to practice and learn Chinese. The Omeida Academy helped me move past being afraid of speaking, helped me to get my tones correct. They have a very good comprehensive study program.

What inspired you to travel abroad?

I wanted to find a marketing job related to one of my interests, and learning Chinese is one of my biggest interests. Omeida has an incredible international community that makes language exchange natural. Yangshuo has a wonderful outdoor environment with years of opportunity for exploration and adventure. It's been my favorite place I've ever lived and worked.

What inspired you to travel abroad?

Honestly, when I left my last job and joined Omeida, I was just hoping to improve my spoken English. I majored in English and worked for about three years in a company using English every day (most of the time translating documents), but still could not understand or speak out when meeting the auditors from foreign organizations.

I wanted to go abroad to challenge myself. I had never travelled abroad for the purpose of studying and I had never solo travelled before. Going abroad helps expose you to new experiences and challenges. The best part is being able to come back home with a refined mindset on what you want in life.
