“Being in China with Next Step China was an amazing experience. I really liked the services they offered. I really liked that I didn’t have to worry about anything concerning bills. The apartments were cleaned once a week, which was really nice because it just takes something off from what you would do every day. And I also really liked the people I got to know through Next Step China. The staff is really nice and I got along really great with them and I just loved hanging out with them, talking with them and they just provided a really nice time for every one of us I think.”

“I really like the hands-on approach and how much attention was given to each individual. I liked having tutors with two different teaching styles so you have the language of both complimenting each other as you go along. The tutoring program is really encouraging because you can feel yourself improving.”

“Next Step China’s service was awesome. Their Tutoring Program really allowed me to improve my Mandarin. I also enjoyed my time at BLCU because I was able to make some new friends from all over the world. My time in China was an amazing experience and I can’t wait to go back.”

“The tutoring program did really encourage me to speak. And also when we took excursions outside, like when we went to the Silk Market, I got tons of practice with my Mandarin.”

“My NSC’s tutoring program was an intensive one. It was divided in two parts per day with two different teachers that helped me constantly in my Chinese learning. It felt as a real immersion in the Chinese language, which was what I was looking for.”

NSC thoroughly explained their program on the website and then delivered every promise. I was especially impressed by their willingness to be available 24/7 to resolve issues.

NSC exceeded my expectations. The fact that they cared very much about their participants assured me that choosing them over their competitors was worth it.

“I was very impressed with the tutoring. I have to say that’s one of the things I will miss the most. Absolutely personalized, flexible, and diverse teaching styles which is all conducive to better learning”

“Staff was amazing. Before I arrived in China, they would always answer e-mails within a day, and typically sooner. While I was there they were available to answer questions and help out in emergencies at any time, even late at night. Also, I *highly* recommend the intensive tutoring, particularly to anyone who already has a decent solid foundation in mandarin. There is no quicker way to learn Chinese than by working one-on-one with the great teachers they have at NSC.”

“The tutoring was excellent. Both of my tutors focused on different aspects of my learning. With hard work and the dedication of my tutors I was able to pass the HSK level 2 in 2 weeks. It was definitely not easy as it required a lot of discline and review but my tutors helped me from a plan that helped me achieve my goals. Additionally, once my Mandarin had improved I really enjoyed the situational lessons at restaurants, museums and stores around Beijing.”

“The staff were friendly and very helpful, my teachers were both excellent and the accommodation was spacious and well-maintained.”

Next Step China definitely met my expectations. The fact that the company was friendly and like a family made it more welcoming.”

The service NSC provided was excellent. From picking me up at the airport, to taking care of the Chinese government paper works, to providing a cell phone, transportation, and local orientation etc. Because of NSC doing all this, I could focus on my Chinese studies.

The moment I arrived in China the airport pick up was so helpful. I also was very impressed with all the materials that were provided (Cell phone, backpack, phrase book, etc.) The staff was always very helpful in helping me to get a tutor that matched my learning style.
