China School Trip

Our School Trip Programs

The Birds Nest Stadium from the 2008 Beijing Olympics

Your China School Trip can be tailored to how you want it in terms of number of students and how long you stay for.

The program can be tailored to your exact requirements. We have created activities aimed at strengthening language skills in order to make afternoon visits even more interactive. These are based on real situations in which students must actually put the language into practice, look for clues, retrieve information and interview people. Learning happens as much outside the classroom as it does inside and our China School Program reflects that.

Each weekday students will enjoy breakfast and take part in four hours of Chinese class. The class time will be split in two, with lunch in between at midday. After classes at 3pm the students will take part in an afternoon activity which will vary by the day and involve exploring different areas of Beijing whether it be the Olympic Park, The Temple of Heaven, or the tranquil scenery surrounding Houhai lake.

On weekends students will take part in various day trips, the most popular being the trip to the famous Great Wall of China.

Sunday will be a day of free time for the students and a chance to re-charge their batteries. On the final Saturday there will be a course evaluation in the morning before you say farewell to LTL and China.

Below shows three potential weeks that LTL Mandarin School can prepare for your class. These can of course be tailored exactly how you wish for them to be.

NOTE – Our China School Trip programs last 10, 14 or 21 days.

Choose Your Options – China School Trip

As stated, we aim for your School Trip to China to be as flexible as possible. No two programs should ever be the same so we offer flexible options which include the following:

• Length of the Program – The first thing you’ll decide is how long you wish the program to last. anything from 10 days to 21 days is available
• Teacher Accommodation – You can choose whether you, the teacher, stay in single rooms or double rooms
• Challenges – You’ll notice above each week there are three different challenges in the afternoon slot on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. You are free to select the challenges you wish to assign to your students. The aim of the challenges is to allow your students to interact with locals as much as possible, putting into practice what they have already learnt in the classroom.
• Weekend Trip – As with the challenges, the weekend trips are completely up to you. Want to visit the Great Wall? Perfect. Or do you prefer to take a day trip to nearby city Tianjin via the bullet train? It can all be arranged with LTL.
• Additional Teachers – Want more teachers involved? Once again, we can arrange this to whatever suits you and your class best.
