"Super profs, super organisateurs, super tout ! Merci d'avoir rendu ça possible malgré mais problèmes de santé et alimentaires !"

Anouk Heimann, student from Switzerland

Concernant les cours et le professeur, c'était vraiment extra! La communication par le personnel de l'école quel qu'il soit était parfaite. Le lieu où j'étais était magnifique. Quand à l'hébergement, j'avais pris un appartement en colocation avec d'autres étudiants et pour cela je dois dire que c'est vraiment extrêmement pratique que l'école se charge de trouver les logements. Concernant l'appartement, j'avais accès à une cuisine pour me faire à manger, j'avais accès aussi à une machine à laver le linge , des toilettes western, la climatisation, la literie, avec toilettes et douche dans ma chambre et non à partager avec les autres ... parfait !
C'est de nombreux problèmes alimentaires, allergique, intolérance ou autre, et grâce aux deux repas à la cantine qui faisait extrêmement attention à mes soucis, j'ai pu avoir des repas de bonne qualité et variés tous les jours : ainsi, malgré ses soucis pouvant être dangereux pour moi, j'ai pu manger sereinement malgré l'obstacle de la langue.
Vraiment tout est facilité de manière à ce que l'on n'ait plus qu'à arriver, suivre nos cours et profiter du séjour. Il y avait également plein d'activités prévues possibles, mais non obligatoire si l'on voulait visiter par nous-même d'autres parties de cette région.
Et avec eux, pas de soucis même quand on en a un, car ils font tout pour vous aider à résoudre quelque problème que ce soit que vous puissiez rencontrer.
J'ai vraiment apprécié.

"Enriching, Immersive Language Learning and Cultural Experience"

Timea Szeteiova, student from UK

I had an enriching and immersive experience studying Chinese at Omeida Language School in Yangshuo. The quality of teaching far surpassed my expectations—my instructor was not only highly knowledgeable but also patient, engaging, and incredibly skilled at tailoring lessons to our learning style. I felt myself progressing rapidly while enjoying every class.
Beyond the classroom, the cultural trip organised by Omeida was a highlight. It offered a deeper understanding of local traditions and gave me the chance to practise the language in an authentic, natural setting. The staff were consistently supportive, warm, and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made me feel at home from the very first day.
And naturally, Yangshuo itself is stunning. Encircled by karst mountains, rivers, and lively local culture, it provides an ideal backdrop for learning, discovery, and inspiration. I wholeheartedly recommend Omeida to anyone seeking a meaningful and immersive language-learning experience in one of China’s most beautiful towns.

"A great way to learn Chinese."

Valerie Teasdale, student from Canada

The schedule was perfect with free time to study and do the homework.
The teacher I had was awesome, great methods and enthousiasm.
Yangshuo is a very beautiful little city. I felt home.
My hotel was also great.

I had a great taichi class in the afternoon. Loved the teacher and the school.

I did not participate at the activities but they seemed very interesting.

The food at the canteen was not really great. I spent a bit in the restaurants around to have something better to eat.
