Testimonials – Chinese Language Classes
Here are just a few testimonials from recent Chinese classes at the CALA Summer Language Institute:
“The classes are very engaging and effective for helping a novice learner feel more comfortable with a new language.” —Delia B., K-12 Language Teacher
“I loved [Helen]–she did a great job . . . . I liked how it was hands-on and how there were fun activities” —Lindsey B., High School Student
“[The methods] were very fun and [the content] easily remembered. [The class] was very effective.” —Tyler B., High School Student
“The class didn’t stress me . . . and that helps . . . learning a language.” —Don S., High School Student
“I stayed engaged for hours at a time!!! I learned so much [more than] what I thought I’d learn. I expected to count and learn greetings. I can learn those on a website. I learned how the language works and how to begin using it!” –Sienna H., High School English Teacher
