When you decide to learn Chinese in China, you may be curious what’s included in tuition. At Keats School in Kunming, China, the tuition doesn’t just include classes, it includes a lot more to be excited about.
In this blog post, we’ll break down everything you get when you sign up for our intensive one-on-one Chinese classes.

Our most popular course option at Keats School is our intensive one-on-one. Not only is it the most popular, but it’s also the best way to learn Mandarin and the easiest way to learn the Chinese language. Keats has been offering this study abroad program in China since we were founded in 2004.
The tuition for the one-on-one class depends on the program duration you choose and how many hours of studying you’d like to do.
Classes run from 1 week long to 52 weeks, and you can choose to study Mandarin in China for 4 or 6 hours a day.
Most of our students who apply for the intensive one-on-one class learn Mandarin in China for 4 to 12 weeks and study for 4 hours a day.
In addition to learning Mandarin in China course with a private instructor, you receive a lot more when studying at Keats Chinese.
First, you can pick a package you’d like to include in your lessons. Each intensive one-on-one program includes lessons and three meals a day.
But, you can also pick different classes to attend:
With the addition of extra classes, the tuition will increase slightly.
When you study Mandarin in China at a university, you only get the classes. But at Keats School we want your money to go further, that’s why we offer several free services for our students.
Our free services include:
Keats believes that you should experience more than a classroom where you learn Mandarin while studying in China. Keats School is your second home, and we want you to feel that.
Offering private bedrooms, free laundry, and the ability to connect to the internet allows you to feel comfortable while away from friends and family.
We know that healthy exercise and food are important while studying Chinese in China.
When you sign up for our intensive one-on-one class, you will access our state-of-the-art fitness center. This center is available any hour of the day to get your sweat on.
Studies show that the use of exercise increases the function of the memory sections of the brain. Regular exercise changes the brain to improve memory and thinking skills. This is a huge reason to check out the Keats Fitness Centre while learning Chinese.
In addition to exercise, eating healthy foods is just as important. Like we mentioned above, we offer three meals a day for Keats Students from Monday to Friday. Keats Cafeteria uses healthy vegetables that are directly bought from farmers. We never use frozen meat. Instead, all meat is fresh.
The huge difference between Keats’ cafeteria and other restaurants is all the ingredients we use to cook are good for your health.
We provide fresh vegetables, fruits, fried eggs, cakes, fried rice, meat, yogurt, milk, coffee, cereal, and Yunnan rice noodles for breakfast.
For lunch, we provide about 10 delicious Chinese dishes with dumplings and rice.
For dinner, we provide about 10 delicious Chinese dishes with fruits and rice.
At Keats School, you will be more than a student. You will become part of the international Keats family with family members across the whole globe.
More than 40% of our students return for more Mandarin lessons, and we know it’s because of our quality teaching and students getting more for their money.

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 a really great time here. I’ve studied a lot with my teacher who was fantastic. Keats School tried very hard to match its students with really good teachers that their personality works very well together. I really enjoy studying Chinese at Keats and I will definitely come back.
The teachers at Keats know how to read the students and how to help students learn Chinese language easily. They know the level of the students. I am a slow learner, but they managed to adapt to my learning. They made the class very fun, very exciting. I am pleased that not only I got to learn the culture and the language, but I also got to make amazing friends, really unbelievable, Chinese friends and European friends, American friends, from all over the world.
The place is very cool. I am with a great group of people in my class, so coming to classes is very enjoyable. It is fun, we have a lot of discussions, games, activities. Our teachers are also very good, very supportive. Learning Chinese is intimidating at the start because you have so many questions. But I would advise coming to Keats because the atmosphere for learning is great. It is very relaxing. I would recommend the school.
All teachers are really lovely. The teaching level at Keats is so much higher. I really love the city. It is very comfortable to get around. I fully recommend Keats. It is a great place to study Chinese in China. We are looking forward to coming back again later this year.
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.
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.
My school is amazing. I recommend Keats School because it is a more convenient way to learn Chinese in Kunming.
