Beijing BLCU Mandarin Language Course Conclusion

After some other experience in other provinces of China and school in Beijing, I have come to the conclusion although the administration and staff are hopeless in BLCU. They have an effective language program. Although it may seem boring and I keep falling asleep in class, somehow I learnt the language.

The homework structure is useful and made me focus. We bargained for less characters to remember but Liu Lao Shi was strict. Funny as well but always enthusiastic to mark homework! At times I wanted to go out and take a break but I am glad I stuck to studying and stayed in my room, speaking to myself practicing those tones.

Building which I studied

Conclusion, I would go back if the Beijing air was less polluted. But after venturing south to Fuzhou and GuangZhou I realised I could pay 1/3 the price and get one semester of education rather than what I paid at blcu 8300rmb for 10 weeks of tuition. 

I bought the sets of book and I am continuing my Mandarin studies still. A tip is have language partners and friends who are Mandarin university students or graduates.
