The Columbus School of Chinese is excited to announce our next Chinese Immersion Weekend in Flushing, New York, July 24-26, 2020!
This three-day program is an immersive Chinese language and culture experience for students who have completed Beginner I and above.
Flushing, located in Queens, New York, boasts one of the largest Chinese communities outside of China. The Flushing provides learners with authentic opportunities to practice their language and cultural skills, apply their knowledge outside of the classroom and become more comfortable with life in a Chinese environment.
CSC language and culture experts will guide students through real-life scenarios and cultural experiences that will ultimately leave learners with greater confidence in their language ability and deeper, practical understanding of Chinese culture and society.
Participants will interact in Chinese with native Chinese speakers in a variety of settings:
- Interact with cab drivers;
- Purchase items through bargaining;
- Ask for directions;
- Order food and interact with restaurant staff;
- Experience a Chinese style banquet;
- Participate in authentic Chinese recreational activities, and more.
To register, please email info@columbusschoolofchinese.com before March 6, 2020. Spots are limited to 10 students.
