후통스쿨에서 6개월 다니는 동안 휼륭한 선생님들이랑 전 세계에서 온 친구들을 만나서 갑진 경험을 했습니다. 그리고 제 생각에 중국어 실력을 더 빨리 익히고 배우는 방법은 현지인들과 같이 좋은 시간을 보내는겁니다. 예를 들어 도시 탐방 같은 학교에서 기획…
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.
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!
후통스쿨은 초보자 수준에서 언어를 배울 수 있는 기회를 제공했고,중국의 역사적 장소의 대부분을 탐험하면서 진정한 중국을 알수있도록 해줬다.
Excellent reception with 24h service for any issue or language problem that could arise. My Chinese teacher was very dedicated and skilled. I learned more in my five weeks in Shanghai than I had learnt two years studying at home.
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!
나는 처음으로 나 혼자서 여행을 한 것이기 때문에 불안했다. 하지만 모두가 친절하게 나를 환영해줬고, 더이상 나는걱정하지 않았다. 교사는 훌륭했고, 소규모 그룹 강의를 통해 나는 내 시간을 효율적으로 쓸 수 있었다.
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 skillfull and experienced both at teaching Chinese and adjusting to student and class needs. I was amazed at my progress after only one month!
I had studied Chinese on my own for about a year before I went to Hutong School. Having class for 4h/day made my Chinese level improve right away while still leaving me time for hanging out with the other students and exploring Beijing. I went back the year after so I guess that gives a pretty good impression of how satisfied I have been with the Intensive Chinese Program!
Just kidding! His Chinese is already really impressive. But Mark, you're always welcome if you want to practice those tones ?
