Un filósofo legendario Lǎo Zǐ (alrededor de 580-470 a. C.)

El apellido de Lao Zi era Li y su nombre de pila, Er. Lao Zi es un título honorífico. Es ampliamente reconocido que Lao Zi es uno de los filósofos más venerados de la historia china. Existen numerosas leyendas sobre su nacimiento, carrera, enseñanza e ideas filosóficas.

Según una leyenda popular, Lao Zi fue concebido cuando su madre vio caer una estrella en su regazo y permaneció en el vientre materno durante 80 años. Al nacer, ya era un hombre adulto con barba canosa y largos lóbulos en las orejas, símbolo de buena fortuna y longevidad.

En su día, conservó los archivos de la corte real de la dinastía Zhou (aprox. siglo XI-256 a. C.). Sin embargo, posteriormente dimitió y se dirigió al oeste para difundir sus ideas y filosofía.

Un día, mientras montaba un buey, se acercó al Paso Hangu y fue detenido por Yinxi, un centinela que custodiaba el paso. Como fiel seguidor de la filosofía de Lao Zi, el oficial reconoció de inmediato al gran maestro. Pero, para pedirle a Lao Zi que le enseñara algo de su filosofía, le exigió al anciano un permiso oficial para salir del país. Lao Zi no tenía documentos, así que aceptó escribir un ensayo de 5000 palabras sobre su filosofía a cambio de un pasaje a Occidente. Ese ensayo resultó ser el famoso Daodejing (también conocido como «Tao Te Ching»), o el «Libro de la Virtud».

Hoy en día, académicos de todo el mundo siguen debatiendo si el libro fue escrito por Lao Zi o compilado por sus estudiantes y discípulos.

Sin embargo, todos coinciden en que refleja el pensamiento de Lao Zi. En él, Lao Zi utilizó el concepto de Dao (Tao) para explicar todos los cambios del universo. El Dao, que también se ha traducido como «Camino» o «Gran Integridad», se considera la fuente misteriosa o el ideal de toda la existencia.

El Tao Te Ching de Lao Tzu es un clásico de la filosofía china. La mejor manera de comprender a fondo esta obra es venir a China y asistir a un curso de chino a tiempo completo. Como el mejor país para aprender chino, China no solo ofrece cursos de idiomas de alta calidad, sino que también permite experimentar de primera mano actividades culturales tradicionales como los festivales chinos.

Small Group Chinese Class

I have studied at Keats for 2 semesters. I highly recommend Keats School. If you are very interested in taking a Mandarin course in China, I would suggest you come to Kunming. Kunming people are very friendly. The weather in Kunming is great. So I recommend that you study Chinese at Keats in Kunming.

Small Group Chinese Class

I come to Kunming because I think the environment in Kunming is better and I heard that Keats School is better. I like the small group Chinese class because my classmates study hard and our teachers are very good. I like the teaching method of Keats because I like the activities at Keats. I think Yunnan is a particularly beautiful Chinese province.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

It doesn’t matter what level of Chinese you have, or even you can start from the zero level. Your teacher will prepare the lessons according to your requirements. The advantage of living in the school is that you will have your tutoring, you will have your private accommodation with your own bathroom and all the meals provided. I highly recommend everybody to actually take the whole package because you get to meet other students.

I’ve had an amazing time at Keats. I am amazed at how much I’ve learned over the last 3 weeks and I will be really sad to go. We are already planning on our next trip of coming back because we had such a fantastic time here. They really tailor the Chinese language course to you and your individual needs.

HSK Test Preparation Course

Last year I started studying Chinese at University. The reason that I came here is that currently, I’m preparing for the HSK 5 test. Also, I heard that this is one of the best schools to study Mandarin in China. After I came here I realized that Kunming is a pretty cool city to live in and with regards to the teachers’ teaching methods, I think they’re very professional. And I think the language environment is good so now I’m ready to take the HSK 5.

Intensive One-on-One Chinese Classes

This is my second time coming. Last year, I also came for about 12 weeks. This time I came for 13 weeks of a summer program in China. The reason why I particularly want to come to this school was because of the one-on-one classes. I was able to increase my level and learn Chinese more quickly than in group classes. If I have a chance again to come next year, I certainly will.

About studying Chinese here, I think the living condition is very convenient because the dorm is very close to the classroom. Our teachers really enjoy teaching Chinese. They are also very passionate. Compared with other cities in China, Kunming has really good weather.
