Taiwan: Mandarin Language Intensive (Summer)
Program Overview
Taiwan holds a wealth of cultural treasures from its millennia of history, making it an ideal destination for a transformative linguistic and cultural journey. Our 4-week Mandarin Language Intensive Program in Taiwan, designed for students aged 15-18, offers a unique opportunity to not only master the Mandarin language but also to immerse oneself in the rich tapestry of Taiwanese culture.
In Yilan, you'll be introduced to the rich heritage of the Atayal people firsthand. Living with local families, you'll engage in Mandarin lessons, learn farming practices, and explore environmental issues, fostering deep connections and understanding of traditional Taiwanese life. Moving to Taipei, you will further hone your language skills through interactions with host families and immersive independent study projects spanning from culinary arts to calligraphy.
Throughout the program, you will not only enhance your Mandarin proficiency but also gain confidence in navigating the diverse landscapes of Taiwan, both linguistically and culturally. Join us for an unforgettable summer of learning, exploration, and growth in the heart of Asia's hidden gem.
