Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n

What are the admissions criteria?<\/h4><\/div>

Anyone is welcome to apply for the 1 on 1 classes at BLCU. The main requirement is that you demonstrate a strong desire and commitment to improve your Chinese level. To apply please complete the form on the apply now page and a representative will contact you.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

How are the classes taught?<\/h4><\/div>

The classes are taught on Fastmeeting or any other software that is agreed by both parties. The classes are typically just under 1 hour. Following an assessment of the student’s Chinese level and their learning goals, a proposed study plan will be sent to the student. The teacher will then teach according to these goals using Fastmeeting to practice exercises, and tailored slideshow presentations to teach the new words and explain the new grammar points.<\/p><\/div><\/div>

How good is the internet connection?<\/h4><\/div>

The classes are taken on Fastmeeting which is an easy to use platform and it works well between China and other countries. The internet connection coming from BLCU is a high speed connection, and the connection quality and speed is usually very good, we have over a 95% success rate of classes that don’t have any problems. In a very small number of cases (less than 1% (usually when the students don’t have good connections), there may be some connection problems, in this case, we can send the content of the class to you by email, so it can be opened, and we will turn the video of app. This greatly speeds up the quality in most of the cases. If there are still any problems we will either wait, or rearrange the class. We are also open to using other programs or alternatives as requested or suggested by students such as by Zoom. <\/p><\/div><\/div>
