If you are interested in Chinese culture, this is the opportunity of a lifetime! Immerse yourself in the rich culture of China. Steeped in ancient customs, architecture and art, your time spent living with an authentic Chinese host family will be an unforgettable and enriching life-experience. China's recent economic growth and strong standing in the international community, has made learning Chinese Mandarin more popular than ever before. If you are interested in learning this fascinating language and experiencing all of the wonders that China has to offer, then this is an opportunity you won't want to miss!
Students are hosted by volunteer host families who will provide students with room/board and the unequalled experience of living with a family. Through day-to-day interactions, students are able to take part in invaluable lessons in language, life and culture that can never be taught in the classroom.
All placements are made in Chengdu, the capital of the Sichuan province. Most families live in apartment-style homes within the city. Students will receive their own bed, but may share a room with a host sibling.
