School

Our partner school for Chinese is located in the district of Laoshan, 15 minutes away from Qingdao city centre. This district is famous for its beaches: white sand, clear water… Old Man’s Beach is without a doubt one of the most beautiful in the city. The language centre is housed in a building that is specially designed for hosting students. In one of the 16 light and well-equipped classrooms, qualified teachers will teach you Chinese. An exciting activity programme will be offered after lessons.
