Der er et level af komfort og elskværdig atmosfære hos Hutong School som var smittende. Kun fire måneder i Shanghai og jeg havde fået utrolige venner, lært mere om mig selv som person end jeg nogensinde havde kunne gøre i mit eget land, og aldrig havde jeg troet jeg skulle nyde at studere Kinesisk så meget som jeg har gjort. Hutong School…
A great organization that takes good care of you. From day one I was met with open arms by the Hutong School staff, which made the transition easy. They provided an important social structure and offered plenty of social events throughout my stay. Whether you’re an experienced traveller, or spending your first time abroad, Hutong School provides the much needed comfort, and administrative support, that helps you to solely focus on your stay abroad. My stay in Shanghai left me as a more experienced employee, and most importantly a happier person.
I first went to Shanghai as a Hutong School student, nothing speaks more about the experience than the fact that I went back for an internship (within their offices!) a year later. Studying and working in China were the differentiating factors on my resume that lead me to the amazing job I have now, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Hutong School´s awesome staff guiding me through my Chinese adventures.
Hutong School included language/cultural barrier assistance 24/7, and exposed me to a new culture, great cultural activities, a new language, amazing people. I took the Chinese intensive course and found it to be more effective than any other Chinese language program I have encountered. The teachers are very good, professional and friendly…
I really enjoyed my experience with Hutong School in Shanghai. More than a simple Chinese course, here you can experiment the language with the help of very professional tutors, participate in many activities and meet many nice people from all around the world!
Hutong School set me up with a nice flat in the centre of Beijing, taught me loads during class and led interesting cultural activities after class. The greatest thing was the flexibility to determine your own experience while also being provided the opportunity to experience as much as possible at every turn.
Jeg brugte min ferier hos Hutong School og det var den bedste beslutning jeg nogensinde har taget! Jeg havde studeret kinesisk det forrige år og indså at mine lektioner hos Hutong var helt klart en bedre kvalitet. Det var de bedste lærere, metoder og kulturelle aktiviteter muligt. Jeg var efterfølgende i stand til at skippe et helt niveau da…
Jeg havde aldrig været i Kina før jeg besluttede mig for at tage en praktikplads hos Hutong School. Støtten jeg fik fra personalet, var exceptionel og de forsikrede sig at jeg aldrig følte mig alene i Shanghai. Jeg har mødt en masse mennesker fra over hele verden og takket være skolen er nogle af de mennesker mine venner den dag i dag. …
