BEIHAI SERVICES

When coming to China you may feel that the pre departure to-do list is longer than your arm!

You are in luck. We’ve been an established and accredited Chinese Language School for over a decade and have years of experience when dealing with newcomers to China.

During that time we’ve picked up a few tips and tricks to make your lives as smooth as possible when you touch down in China.

Using our experience, we’ve put together a survival kit that aims to make your transition as comfortable as possible. Little things you might not think about, or minor tasks that become difficult if you come knowing zero Chinese.

We do ask one thing – Please make sure if you wish to purchase a survival kit, you do it before arriving in China. They are designed for people touching down, and not after a week when some of the services by this time would be redundant.

Beihai Survival Kit – Standard

Below are all the elements of the Standard Survival Kit you receive when coming to Beihai.

• Airport / Train Station Pick Up – Arrive in China and don’t have to worry about finding a route to your LTL accommodation or hotel. Find the card with your name on and relax.

Beihai Connection Kit

Going to a new city and worried about making friends?

The LTL Connection kit is the perfect way to make friends as soon as possible. It’s all too easy to default and hang around with all the foreigners in Beihai but if you are keen to meet the locals, then you’ve got a free pass to learning Chinese at an even greater rate, whilst potentially making friends for life.

Making friends with locals is not only valuable for your language skills but they’ll also know all the spots in Beihai you would probably miss as a tourist. Let’s face it, when someone visits your hometown, you want to take them to the off-the-beaten track areas and show them something different.

And thus the idea of the Connection Kit was born…

• Personal Student Ambassador – A companion picked on based on your hobbies and interests. You’ll explore Beihai together, knowing that you already have a tonne in common.

• Personal Chinese Language Exchange Friend – Meet for a drink, some food or whatever you decide and exchange language stories. Cultural stories about your country are a never ending topic of discussion. You’ll benefit each other greatly.
