China ist ein faszinierendes Land, es ist voll von Möglichkeiten und die Hutong School half mir dabei, sie zu erkunden. Der morgendliche Chinesischunterricht direkt vor meinem Praktikum waren eine große Hilfe, da fühlte ich mich selbstbewusster, wenn ich mit Leuten sprechen musste. Die Hutong School ist immer da, wenn man sie braucht!…
Ich war sehr zufrieden mit der sehr persönlichen Methode, die sie verwendet haben, um eine geeignete Firma für mein Praktikum zu suchen. Zunächst hatte ich ein kurzes Skype-Interview mit dem Programmmanager, einen Tag später hatte ich bereits einige Vorschläge für Stellenangebote. Das nächste Gespräch war mit der Firma, die ich gewähl…
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!
Ich war zunächst eine normaler Studentin an der Hutong School – nichts zeigt meine Begeisterung mehr als die Tatsache, dass ich ein Jahr später zurückgekehrt bin – als Praktikantin direkt bei der Schule! Studieren und arbeiten in China waren die ausschlaggebenden Unterschiede in meinem Lebenslauf die mich zu meinem jetzigen Job geführt h…
I particularly appreciated the dedication and patience of the teachers (I’m more than 70 years old, it was not so easy to get vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation into my old brain) and the time the administratives spent to help us for accommodation, planning, etc. Hutong School “boosted” me to pass HSK 3 at 74 years old!
I didn’t have any idea what to do after I graduated. So I focus myself in my business in México when I decided to start a new experience in China. That’s when I came across Hutong School while browsing on the net. I wanted to learn Chinese but not only focus on intensive courses, Hutong offered me a big portfolio of quality internships where I’ve founded a place on a nice company where I learn a lot about business in China while learning Chinese with Hutong excellent quality lessons. Totally recommended!
Starting from my initial email contact, the customer service was exceptional. I received excellent information and support before, during and after my classes. The instructors are skill-full and experienced both at teaching Chinese and adjusting to student and class needs. I was amazed at my progress after only one month!
I’ve joined the Hutong School in Beijing and Shanghai two times already – and every time it was a great and wonderful experience. The accommodation is quite okay. The people at the Hutong School are very nice and helpful in every way. The teachers are very motivated and well prepared. And the School offers a lot of fun free-time activities. The “Hutong-School-weeks” were one of my best in my live – and I can recommend it in every way. You not only learn a lot – you also meet a lot of new friends.
Da ich aus den USA kam, war ich extrem ängstlich und vorsichtig bei der Suche nach Praktika in China. Dass ich auf die Hutong School gestoßen bin, war wirklich ein Segen. Sie haben nicht nur für meine Bedürfnisse gesorgt, sondern sie haben mir auch die Augen für eine neue Welt geöffnet und ermöglicht, dass ich mich gleichzeitig immer…
Ich habe nicht damit gerechnet, eine so tolle und wertvolle Erfahrung zu machen. Meine Ausbildung war sehr nützlich, um mir neue Fähigkeiten anzueignen und hat mir eine echte Perspektive für künftige Jobs gegeben.
