What can be better than attending a
Chinese language program in the country where the language is spoken, traveling to all the sites and sharing the lives of the locals as they help you learn to make the Chinese language second nature? This type of language program is called immersion, because you immerse yourself in the culture as you learn the language, you speak the language in real time for the entire time that you are on your trip.
Immersion training is based on the concept that as we learn to speak our native language we do it because that is the language we grow up with and the one that is used by example in everything we do.
Immersion training seeks to copy nature's way of training us to human languages, by immersing us into the language and the culture, in hopes that such learning will make it easier for us to adapt to the language. A
Chinese language program based on immersion will take place in China and will include hours of class instruction followed by plenty of practice during the remaining time.
