노자의 성은 이(李)이고 이름은 이(二)였습니다. 노자는 존칭입니다. 노자는 중국 역사상 가장 존경받는 철학자 중 한 명으로 널리 알려져 있습니다. 그의 탄생, 생애, 가르침, 그리고 철학적 사상에 대해서는 수많은 전설이 전해집니다.
한 가지 유명한 전설에 따르면, 노자는 어머니가 별똥별이 자신의 품에 떨어지는 것을 보고 잉태되었으며, 80년 동안 뱃속에 머물렀다고 합니다. 태어났을 때 그는 이미 백발에 긴 귓불을 가진 어른의 모습이었는데, 이는 행운과 장수를 상징한다고 합니다.
그는 한때 주나라(기원전 11세기경~기원전 256년)의 궁중 기록 보관소에서 일했습니다. 그러나 그는 나중에 사임하고 서쪽으로 가서 자신의 사상과 철학을 전파했습니다.
어느 날 소를 타고 한골관에 다다랐을 때, 그는 관문을 지키던 은희에게 제지당했습니다. 노자의 철학을 충실히 따르던 그 관리는 즉시 위대한 스승을 알아보았습니다. 그러나 노자에게 그의 철학을 배우기 위해서는 출국 허가증을 제시해야 했습니다. 노자는 허가증이 없었기에, 서양으로의 출국 허가를 받는 조건으로 자신의 철학에 관한 5천 단어 분량의 글을 써주기로 했습니다. 그 글이 바로 오늘날 유명한 도덕경(또는 도덕경)이 되었습니다.
오늘날 전 세계 학자들은 이 책이 실제로 노자가 쓴 것인지 아니면 그의 제자들이 편찬한 것인지에 대해 여전히 논쟁을 벌이고 있습니다.
하지만 모든 학자들은 이 책이 노자의 사상을 반영하고 있다는 점에는 동의합니다. 노자는 이 책에서 도(道)라는 개념을 통해 우주의 모든 변화를 설명합니다. ‘도’는 ‘길’ 또는 ‘위대한 완전함’으로도 번역되며, 모든 존재의 신비로운 근원 또는 이상으로 여겨집니다.
노자의 『도덕경』은 중국 철학의 고전입니다. 이 책을 깊이 이해하는 가장 좋은 방법은 중국에 와서 정규 중국어 과정을 수강하는 것입니다. 중국어를 배우기에 가장 좋은 나라인 중국은 수준 높은 어학 코스를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 중국 명절과 같은 전통 문화 행사를 직접 경험할 수 있는 기회도 제공합니다.
I think Kunming is a great city, the weather is really good. I really like Keats school and found it is very organized. The teachers here are very good. They have a coffee shop and new classrooms, a new lounge area here now, so you can chill out with your friends and practice your spoken Chinese with natives. If you’re considering coming to Keats to study, I would really recommend it. It’s the best place to learn Mandarin and I think it will be a great experience for you.
I’ve been at Keats school and Kunming now for one month doing the one-on-one Chinese lessons with two different teachers. I really enjoy it. Both of my teachers are very friendly and patient. They really helped me to improve my Chinese, both of my reading and speaking. I really enjoy studying Chinese in Kunming as well. This city is really beautiful and the weather is nice, the air is clean. It’s one of the best cities in China to study Chinese.
I found Keats to be very good, teachers are excellent and really take the students seriously. Kunming is the best place to learn Mandarin in China. The environment is awesome, no pollution.

I learned so many things, although I only studied at Keats for 2 months. I am really satisfied with my teacher. For us foreigners, Keats is the best Chinese school in China. Therefore, I would highly recommend Keats to all of you.
I really enjoy studying Chinese in Kunming at Keats. The teachers are great and my classmates are awesome. It is an unforgettable experience for me. I also got the chance to travel to other places in Yunnan. Those places are amazing and you definitely need to visit these places when you study Chinese in China at Keats.
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.
Since last semester, we started studying Chinese at Keats. It was the best choice we can ever make. It is a really good school. The classes are a lot of fun, you learn a lot, but very interactive, so you talk a lot which means it is not just books and writing. Kunming is a really pleasant city to live in, especially if you compare it to other cities in the east. If you like to travel, if you like to study Chinese in a fun way, Keats has the best Chinese language program for you.
I have to say it’s tons of fun. I have been here for 2 weeks. Not knowing what it was gonna be like, I was more than surprised at how great it is. The teachers are great, they are understanding. They do a Chinese language program that suits just you. The location is perfect for learning Chinese in China.
They really care about what our interests are, what questions we have, what requirements we have. Then they adjust our Chinese language program content according to the situations. One teacher and one student, so it is easy to keep your focus for the 6 hours of immersion Mandarin lessons. It is very convenient to study, live and eat in one building.
