They provided me with an outstanding placement, tailored language classes and critical welcome assistance. I must have asked the staff a thousand times to change my program, two thousand times to sign up for activities and three thousand times I changed my mind, but I’ve always been assisted with a smile. Priceless experience, priceless staff!
I decided to quit my job and take a 3 months crash course. A decision I do not regret. Hutong School is honestly always there to support you with daily things and to help you out...Learning Chinese is a whole different experience, since you have to cross a cultural border to understand the language and its structure.
La Hutong School est la colonne vertébrale qui rend votre séjour plus facile. La qualité des cours de Chinois est bonne, les activités culturelles sont intéressantes et parfaites pour créer des liens avec de nouvelles personnes. Ce qui rend la Hutong School si bien est probablement le personnel. Chaque membre est compétent, sympathique, s…
Je ne m’attendais pas à vivre une telle expérience, fantastique et enrichissante. Ma formation professionnelle m’a beaucoup apporté et m’a aidé à acquérir de nouvelles compétences et d’avoir une vue sur mon futur travail.
Depuis mon premier email pour une prise de contact, le service client était exceptionnel. J’ai reçu d’excellentes informations et aides avant, pendant et après les classes. Les enseignants sont compétents et ont de l’expérience pour enseigner le Chinois et s’adapter aux élèves et besoins de la classe. J’ai été positivement s..
Excellent accueil avec un service 24h/24 pour tout problème qui pourrait arriver. Mon professeur de Chinois était très compétent et dévoué. J’ai appris plus en 5 semaines à Shanghai que chez moi pendant deux années.
La Hutong School m’a offert l’opportunité de combiner mon stage à Shanghai avec mes études du Mandarin en soirée. Les classes sont petites (4 personnes), ceux qui veut dire que le professeur a la possibilité de s’adapter à chaque élève et vous pratiquez plus. Les activités culturelles et voyages m’ont permis de découvrir le pay…
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!
There is a level of comfort and amiable atmosphere at Hutong School that is very contagious. Only four months in Shanghai and I have made incredible friends, learned more about myself as a person than I ever could in my own country, and I never thought I would enjoy studying Chinese Mandarin this much. Hutong School definitely helped me to find comfort out of my comfort zone!
Just kidding! His Chinese is already really impressive. But Mark, you're always welcome if you want to practice those tones ?
