I think the accommodation was perfect; the apartment was comfortable, large, in very good condition and with all the facilities and comforts I had back home.
How did you feel about NSC’s tutoring program?
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 EXACTLY what I was looking for.
How do you feel about NSC’s service?
Everything was very good, NSC took care of all my needs and did more than I expected.

I would definitively recommend it.
