Great Experience !
by: Nigel Rodda - United StatesProgram: Mandarin Youth Summer CampOur 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...
Wish I could have stayed for longer
by: Charlotte de Ruiter - NetherlandsProgram: Mandarin Language + Cultural Immersion in Beautiful YangshuoI 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!

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.
