•  "Keats School was the only school that offered intensive Chinese classes, one-on-one instruction, a single room with amenities for a reasonable price. The teaching and the helpful services were all excellent..having the dorms located in the same building as the school is great.

As a teacher myself, I can find no flaws in my teacher's teaching methods. I thought she was an excellent teacher. I would gladly be her student again."
Rachel, USA

•  "This year I came back because I benefited so much from the teaching last time and had so much pleasure here. The teaching is excellent and well tailored to the individual student. Keats School's staff make great efforts to make students' life comfortable. 

I think my teacher's preparation is excellent! Because she always has excellent examples she very rarely has to resort to translation – very impressive."
Findlay, Ireland

•  "Keats is not just a school; it is a full living experience: food, artistic decoration, calligraphy courses. The school program offers the main elements of language training, a wide range of available books to consult and certainly a pleasant non-judgmental atmosphere.

She makes good use of the blackboard and flash cards. As a returning student, I will definitely come back again!"
