Seorang Ahli Falsafah Lagenda Lǎo Zǐ (sekitar 580-470 SM)
Nama keluarga Lao Zi ialah Li dan nama asalnya ialah Er. Lao Zi ialah gelaran kehormat. Secara meluas diakui bahawa Lao Zi ialah salah seorang ahli falsafah yang paling dihormati dalam sejarah China. Terdapat banyak legenda tentang kelahiran, kerjaya, pengajaran dan idea falsafahnya.
Menurut satu legenda popular, Lao Zi dikandung apabila ibunya melihat bintang jatuh ke pangkuannya dan dia tinggal di dalam rahim selama 80 tahun. Ketika dilahirkan, dia sudah menjadi seorang lelaki dewasa dengan janggut kelabu dan cuping telinga yang panjang, simbol nasib baik dan panjang umur.
Dia pernah menyimpan arkib istana diraja untuk Dinasti Zhou (sekitar abad ke-11-256 SM). Tetapi dia kemudiannya meletak jawatan dan pergi ke barat untuk menyebarkan idea dan falsafahnya.
Pada suatu hari semasa menunggang lembu, dia menghampiri Laluan Hangu dan dihentikan oleh Yinxi, seorang pengawal yang menjaga laluan itu. Sebagai pengikut setia falsafah Lao Zi, pegawai itu segera mengenali guru besar itu. Tetapi, untuk meminta Lao Zi mengajarnya sesuatu tentang falsafahnya, pegawai itu meminta lelaki tua itu menunjukkan permit rasmi untuk meninggalkan negara. Lao Zi tidak mempunyai dokumen, jadi dia bersetuju untuk menulis esei 5,000 patah perkataan tentang falsafahnya sebagai pertukaran untuk perjalanan ke Barat. Esei itu ternyata Daodejing (juga “Tao Te Ching”), atau “Buku Kebajikan” yang terkenal.
Hari ini, para sarjana di seluruh dunia masih berdebat sama ada buku itu sebenarnya ditulis oleh Lao Zi atau disusun oleh pelajar dan pengikutnya.
Walau bagaimanapun, mereka semua bersetuju bahawa buku itu mencerminkan pemikiran Lao Zi. Dalam buku itu, Lao Zi menggunakan konsep Dao (Tao) untuk menjelaskan semua perubahan di alam semesta. Dao, yang juga telah diterjemahkan sebagai “Jalan” atau “Integriti Agung,” dianggap sebagai sumber misteri atau ideal bagi semua kewujudan.
“Tao Te Ching” Lao Tzu merupakan karya klasik falsafah Cina. Cara terbaik untuk memahami karya ini secara mendalam adalah dengan datang ke China dan menghadiri kursus Bahasa Cina sepenuh masa. Sebagai negara terbaik untuk mempelajari Bahasa Cina, China bukan sahaja menawarkan kursus bahasa yang berkualiti tinggi tetapi juga membolehkan anda merasai sendiri aktiviti budaya tradisional seperti Perayaan Cina.

OVER 7000+ STUDENTS
HAVE STUDIED AT KEATS
It is very convenient to come to Kunming from Thailand. I really like my Chinese class and my Chinese improved a lot in a few months. There are many benefits of learning Chinese. The best thing I like about Keats is that it is in Kunming, a city with eternal spring. There is so much to see in Kunming and you will love this city after you come.
I took the one-on-one Intensive Chinese class for 6 hours a day. The classes are very interesting. The teachers are caring and the content the teacher teaches me is suitable for my level. It is an easy way to learn Mandarin. I have a lot of time practicing Chinese in class. The food is great here. I have improved my Chinese through this program at Keats.
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.
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.
I really enjoy this place because we have private Mandarin lessons. I took the 6-hour program, 4 hours in the morning, 2 in the afternoon. Even though it is quite a lot, the teaching is complimentary. This is very helpful because I could review what I did before and learn new things. My 2 teachers are fantastic. We live in the school, so it is convenient. It is interesting to me to meet people from all over the world.
My name is Sarah Fish. I am 81. I knew very little Chinese when I arrived. How was I going to survive 2 weeks of intensive Chinese course? I have to laugh when I think of that now. What a positive experience this has been! I really wish we could be here a little longer. The teachers are extremely encouraging, evaluating first how much someone knows, and then starting from there.
I decided to learn Chinese in Kunming because I like smaller cities and I like the climate here. We had four hours a day study here and my dear teacher taught me very much and never lost her patience with me. It was a really wonderful experience to be here and I recommend Keats school and the teachers here to everyone who likes to learn Chinese in China.
We use a lot of games to learn grammar and new words. We have really good teachers, really patient. She helps us a lot. Our class is really nice and we have people from all over the world, different countries. We often discuss topics in Chinese in our class. I live in the dorm of Keats. It is very convenient. I don’t have to spend time traveling. You can just focus on learning Chinese.
