I joind the GAC Chinese immersion program in Beijing
September 17, 2025by: Emma Chen - United KingdomProgram: GAC Chinese Language Immersion ProgramI joind the GAC Chinese immersion program in Beijing and it was absolutly amazeing! The classes were small and the teachers were super nice and helpful, I really feel like my Mandarin improved so fast. I stayed with a host family and they made me feel like part of the family, we cooked together and they even took me to local places tourists dont normaly see. The cultural activitees were so fun and I met friends from all over the world. Sometimes the homework was a lot but it was worth it. I would totally recomend this program to anyone who wants to learn Chinese and have a great time!
Hi Emma, we're so happy to hear you had an amazing time in Beijing and felt your Mandarin improved quickly! It's wonderful that your host family made you feel so welcome and showed you local hidden gems—we're glad you enjoyed the cultural activities and made friends from around the world. Thanks for the heartfelt recommendation, and we hope to see you again someday! Warmly, The Go Abroad China Team

GAC Chinese Language Immersion is the best of all
September 09, 2025by: Emma Callahan - United KingdomProgram: GAC Chinese Language Immersion ProgramThis program was everything I hoped for. The Chinese classes were structured but fun, and I felt my confidence grow every day. What I loved most was practicing outside of the classroom — from ordering food to chatting with locals. The cultural workshops like calligraphy and dumpling-making added so much value. By the end, I felt like I had truly lived and breathed China.
Dear Emma, We're thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the immersion program! It’s wonderful that you embraced every opportunity to practice—from classroom lessons to local markets—and that you left feeling truly connected to the language and culture. We wish you continued success as you carry this confidence and global perspective into your next adventures! —GAC Team P.S. We hope your dumpling-making skills are still impressing friends and family!
