La Escuela Hutong incluyó asistencia contra el bloqueo del lenguaje/cultural 24/7, y me expuso a una nueva cultura, grandes actividades culturales, un nuevo lenguaje, y gente increíble. Tomé el curso intensivo de chino y me pareció que era más eficaz que cualquier otro programa de chino que he buscado. Los profesores son muy buenos, profesi…
La Escuela Hutong hizo que venir a China por primera vez fuera muy provechoso, emocionante e integrador culturalmente. El personal, los profesores y los estudiantes fueron absolutamente encantadores y todavía me mantengo en contacto con muchos de ellos. ¡En 6 meses fui de un nivel principiante a un nivel intermedio!
Completé 3 meses del curso intensivo, la cual mejoro mi nivel y capacidad del idioma Chino. Agradezco la oportunidad de haber podido experimentar la cultura china a primera mano, así como la oportunidad de crear amistades no solo con mis compañeros de clase, pero también con las maestras y el personal. Hutong School me proporcionó una resid…
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!
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 Escuela Hutong me ubicó en un bonito apartamento en el centro de Beijing, me enseñaron mucho durante la clase y me llevaron a actividades culturales interesantes después de clase. Lo mejor fue la flexibilidad para configurar tu propia experiencia. A la vez que te daban la oportunidad de experimentar todo de la mejor calidad posible en todo…
My stay at the Hutong School was amazing because I had super good professors and I have met a lot of different students from all around the world during my 6 months' stay. More you stay, better it is to improve faster your Chinese level and share incredible moments with locals. Moreover, there is a bunch of activities proposed by the school, so you can discover the city, etc.
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.
Mi tiempo en Shanghai como parte de la Escuela Hutong fue una de las mejores decisiones que tomé. Fue la mejor pasantía que he tenido, con un buen tutor, tengo una nuevos conocimientos y grandes experiencias. La Escuela Hutong no solo me dio una experiencia profesional, sino también me dio una buena comprensión cultural.
Hacer una pasantía con la Escuela Hutong fue la mejor experiencia de mi vida. Aunque vivir en Beijing a veces era difícil, cuando necesitaba ayuda la Escuela Hutong estaba allí. La pasantía fue muy interesante y mi profesor de chino era genial. He participado en muchas actividades culturales: Taichí, hacer baozi, visitar la Gran Muralla, y…
