LTL put together a perfect program for all of us.  My sons took six hours of 2-on-1 classes per day and lived in homestays with Chinese families in both Beijing and Chengde.  With flexible class schedules, I was able to take language and cultural classes at the same time as my sons therefore I saw them at the LTL campus every weekday.  LTL found us accommodation nearby our sons’ homestays with requested amenities, like high speed Internetfor connecting to our work at home.  LTL was there to answer all our questions and support all four of us throughout our stay.  Our teachers were outstanding.  We all made wonderful new friends and immersed ourselves in Chinese culture and daily life.  I would recommend LTL to any family looking for a fun &amp; educational adventure in China.  We traveled for our third month in China.  Everyone we met commented on our sons’ excellent Chinese language skills.  Our sons have been studying Chinese for 5 years, but at LTL their language skills grew exponentially.\n\n<strong>- Carolyn, mother of Colin and Liam, New Zealand </strong>\n\n<em>Four weeks Beijing serviced apartment, Chinese 1-on-1 classes and Culture classes &amp; four weeks Chengde hotel and 1-on-1 classes</em>\n\n[hr style=dotted-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]<a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Colin.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5340" alt="Colin" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Colin-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>\n\n<strong><span style="font-size: medium;">Colin, 12 years old\n</span></strong>\n\nI did two months of classes with LTL in Beijing and Chengde.

Luckily China is not only a very safe country in general, but Beijing one of the world\'s safest capital cities and Chinese people in general very welcoming and protective towards foreigners who try to learn the country\'s language and experience it\'s culture. Family is the most central value of Chinese culture and in a Chinese homestay family, your child will find a family away from home. The food, language, and culture will be very different, but the basic concern for a child\'s safety and health is the same. Depening on your choice our homestay families can enforce a curfew or take a more relaxed approach - let us know your preferences. At the same time, our school is a quiet place to relax in the middle of Beijing\'s Central Business District, where students can do their homework, make friends with other students or relax, and will always find a member of staff willing to help out with whatever problems there might be.\r\n\r\n[hr style=dotted-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Academic Progress</strong></span><strong> </strong>is of course always the main aim of any stay with LTL. While courses at LTL are designed to be fun, they follow a very strict curriculum to ensure all students make quick progress in their language abilities, including homework and exams. Combined with lifing in a Chinese homestay, where Chinese quickly becomes alive, rather than just a academic subject, you can expect your child to progress quickly. A beginner student with LTL usually masters "basic survival Chinese" within the first week, can engage in basic conversations after three to four weeks and reaches fluency in approximately six to eight months.\r\n\r\n[hr style=dotted-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]\r\n\r\nEach student receives a <span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Certificate </strong></span>upon the completion of the course, including an assessment of their current Chinese language ability. As LTL is certified as an official language school by various governments and universities around the world, often universities accept a course with LTL as university credit.<span style="font-size: medium;">\r\n</span>\r\n\r\n[hr style=double-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]\r\n\r\nFor more information please [button color=red url=http://ltl-chinois.fr/contact-us/ target=blank]Contact us[/button]', 'Parents', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '5330-revision-5', '', '', '2013-07-30 03:08:11', '2013-07-30 03:08:11', '', 5330, 'http://ltl-chinois.fr/5330-revision-5/', 0, 'revision', '', 0) ;

He wanted to take time out to learn a language before going to university. A challenge, as he only spoke one language, English, but also because he has reduced vision. Tiare was born with severe nystagmus and Irlen Syndrome (Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome). He does not have full three dimensional vision, he cannot see much detail beyond about 3 metres, his reading/writing speed is reduced and excessive UV light from fluorescent lights or bright sunlight temporarily bleaches his vision.\r\n\r\nTiare is able to function normally for much of his daily life. Most people are unaware of his disability and to all intents and purposes he lives a normal life, however, he is unable to recognize faces beyond about 3 metres. In new places it takes him longer to find his way around and he is unable to read most modern electronic signs (such as those found at airports etc.) and LED screens, which appear as continuously flickering colours to him.\r\n\r\nTiare needed a language school where he could not only learn Mandairn, but one which would also provide additional support while he learnt his way around a new environment. We contacted various language schools in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Taiwan and explained the situation. Only one of the schools we approached was prepared to make the extra effort, LTL Mandarin School.\r\n\r\n[caption id="attachment_5355" align="alignleft" width="300"]<a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/photo-21.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5355 " alt="Chinese language school balcony" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/photo-21-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a> Tiare and Teurikan joining the LTL welcome breakfast[/caption]\r\n\r\nTiare spent a total of five months attending LTL in Beijing.

There are many ways of doing so, however we do recommend to sign up for a Chinese language course with a local language school in your city as soon as possible after returning from China. Depending on your schedule, evening, weekend, group or 1-on-1 classes might be suitable, however the most important thing is that you continue to study, revise and improve your Chinese skills.\r\n\r\nTo make sure maximum progress, LTL recommens to study with a professional language school that offers a structured curriculum, qualified teachers and an environment where you can meet other people studying Mandarin.\r\n\r\nWe recommend having a look at our partner schools listed below.

It is up to each student to decide which activities to participate in or whether to get involved in the school social life at all. If you prefer to fully focus on your studies, the choice is yours, but the option to join is always available.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">LTL Students</span></strong>\r\n\r\nOur students come from all over the world to Beijing to study Chinese, learn more about Chinese culture, and discover this fascinating country together. You classmates will be from tropical islands, Siberia, Europe, the US or just about any other place in the world with a flight connection to China. They might spend a whole year here to achieve full fluency, are in Beijing as part of a language holiday in China or university program, do an <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/internship-in-china/" target="_blank">internship</a> or work in China after studying Chinese.\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Community</strong></span>\r\n\r\nStudents at LTL are a very sociable bunch, with plenty of dinners, karaoke sessions, and holiday tours organized together. While you will decide yourself in which school activities you want to participate in, for most people the school quickly becomes a second home. When taking a break on our balcony with classmates, joining other students for lunch in the lounge or just doing homework together in the library you will quickly meet a lot of people from all over the world, all with the same passion: China\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The first week</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWhile for 1-on-1 students and students who studied Chinese before it is possible to join classes every Monday, most new students arrive on the Sunday before a <a title="Group Class starting dates" href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/" target="_blank">group class starting dates</a>. For the first night, we suggest to get some sleep and rest from what was most likely a long flight and prepare what will certainly be an exciting week. Starting dates are every two or three weeks.\r\n\r\n<em>Find below a summary of <strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2837" alt="LTL Mandarin School offers a great community" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a></strong> activities you will be able to take part in during a typical week with a starting date. For students who do not arrive on a starting date, many activities like dinners and karaoke might still be available that week, but some like the welcome breakfast only take place during weeks with a starting date.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Monday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll new students - and many of the old ones - meet at 08:00 at the school for our welcome breakfast. We first go for a walk around the area, to show you where to find the best shops, tastiest restaurants, help with questions and explain a bit about living and studying in Beijing. We then get a traditional Chinese breakfast together, costs vary depending on what you get, but are usually between 5 and 15 RMB.\r\n\r\nAt the school students can then decide what to do for lunch today. Most students order lunch at the LTL reception, which then gets delivered to the school during lunch break and we eat together at the school during the break. A great way to meet other students, but also to avoid the lunch rush, as Beijing\'s CBD is a pretty busy place during lunch hours.\r\n\r\n<em>Note: Please always make sure you order your lunch before 10:00 or the day beforehand with Anna at reception as otherwise restaurants might not be able to deliver in time.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3948" alt="chinese dinner" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a>Tuesday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll students join for the LTL school dinner, either Beijing Duck or Beijing traditional hotpot. Always a fun night out, with plenty of food and drinks, a group of students usually carries on to the Sanlitun bar district afterwards.\r\n\r\nMeet at 18:30 at reception. For costs we share the bill together which usually works out to between 50 and 60 RMB per person.\r\n\r\n<strong>Friday</strong>\r\n\r\nIn Beijing, Friday is karaoke night. We all head out for a big night out Chinese style with plenty of beers, food, and signing. Combined with an all you can eat buffet, there are songs in Chinese and English and you can choose to join in or just listen to the others trying to do so. All levels of musical ability are welcome. Afterwards most students either choose to get some rest to be ready for the Great Wall trip the next day or continue on to one of the many Chinese discos in the area. Cost is usually about 100 RMB per person, including karaoke, food and drinks.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3958" alt="China\'s Great Wall" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>The Weekend</strong>\r\n\r\nOn the weekend we do a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/great-wall-trip">two day language holiday trip to the Great Wall</a>, weather allowing. We leave on Saturday morning, to a wild section of the Great Wall, untouched by China\'s tourism department and hidden deep in a valley in Huairou\'s mountains North of Beijing. We then spend two days climbing the old sections of the Great Wall, exploring one of mankind\'s greatest constructions, and the nature around it. For the night we return to an old little village close to the wall, once built to supply the soldiers manning the watchtowers. We then all join in for a traditional Chinese farmers dinner and watch the clear skies above the Northern Mountains, followed by joining a local village festival or just enjoying the quiet and peace.\r\n\r\n<em>Cost: 1,000 RMB, includes, transport to and from the wall, food, drinks, guide, accommodation (single rooms) and entrance tickets.</em> <em>As the Great Wall trip usually gets full very early, we suggest to reserve a place beforehand if you want to go.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3558" alt="skiing in Beijing" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>After the first week</span></strong>\r\n\r\nCommunity is very important for us at LTL, and plenty of movie nights, clubbing, parties, and dinners are organized regularly by students and often teachers as well. In addition the school organizes activities for traditional Chinese holidays, dinners, activities, school trips in the summer, <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/ghost-tour-beijing">beijing ghost tours</a> and skiing holidays in the winter. Providing an environment that allows students to get known to each other is a priority at LTL. People studying here are usually from very different backgrounds but are all fascinated by China, want to learn Mandarin, and explore this amazing country. That is what makes making friends so easy and rewarding. For a language holiday China offers a wide range of entertainment and we welcome you to be part of our little version of the United Nations in China\'s capital.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3577" alt="Beijing Guo An" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>The LIGAF</span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs true Beijingers we of course support our local football team, Beijing Guo An. The LTL International Beijing Guo An Football Fan Club (LIGAF) meets for all home games and joins 50,000 Chinese football fans for a night of football, learning Chinese swearwords for the referee and other people we do not like, as well as singing not always 100% politically correct songs to support our team.

They might spend a whole year here to achieve full fluency, are in Beijing as part of a language holiday in China or university program, do an <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/internship-in-china/" target="_blank">internship</a> or work in China after studying Chinese.\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Community</strong></span>\r\n\r\nStudents at LTL are a very sociable bunch, with plenty of dinners, karaoke sessions, and holiday tours organized together. While you will decide yourself in which school activities you want to participate in, for most people the school quickly becomes a second home. When taking a break on our balcony with classmates, joining other students for lunch in the lounge or just doing homework together in the library you will quickly meet a lot of people from all over the world, all with the same passion: China\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The first week</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWhile for 1-on-1 students and students who studied Chinese before it is possible to join classes every Monday, most new students arrive on the Sunday before a <a title="Group Class starting dates" href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/" target="_blank">group class starting dates</a>. For the first night, we suggest to get some sleep and rest from what was most likely a long flight and prepare what will certainly be an exciting week.

For students who do not arrive on a starting date, many activities like dinners and karaoke might still be available that week, but some like the welcome breakfast only take place during weeks with a starting date.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Monday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll new students - and many of the old ones - meet at 08:00 at the school for our welcome breakfast. We first go for a walk around the area, to show you where to find the best shops, tastiest restaurants, help with questions and explain a bit about living and studying in Beijing. We then get a traditional Chinese breakfast together, costs vary depending on what you get, but are usually between 5 and 15 RMB.\r\n\r\nAt the school students can then decide what to do for lunch today. Most students order lunch at the LTL reception, which then gets delivered to the school during lunch break and we eat together at the school during the break. A great way to meet other students, but also to avoid the lunch rush, as Beijing\'s CBD is a pretty busy place during lunch hours.\r\n\r\n<em>Note: Please always make sure you order your lunch before 10:00 or the day beforehand with Anna at reception as otherwise restaurants might not be able to deliver in time.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3948" alt="chinese dinner" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a>Tuesday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll students join for the LTL school dinner, either Beijing Duck or Beijing traditional hotpot. Always a fun night out, with plenty of food and drinks, a group of students usually carries on to the Sanlitun bar district afterwards.\r\n\r\nMeet at 18:30 at reception. For costs we share the bill together which usually works out to between 50 and 60 RMB per person.\r\n\r\n<strong>Friday</strong>\r\n\r\nIn Beijing, Friday is karaoke night. We all head out for a big night out Chinese style with plenty of beers, food, and signing. Combined with an all you can eat buffet, there are songs in Chinese and English and you can choose to join in or just listen to the others trying to do so. All levels of musical ability are welcome. Afterwards most students either choose to get some rest to be ready for the Great Wall trip the next day or continue on to one of the many Chinese discos in the area. Cost is usually about 100 RMB per person, including karaoke, food and drinks.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3958" alt="China\'s Great Wall" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>The Weekend</strong>\r\n\r\nOn the weekend we do a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/great-wall-trip">two day language holiday trip to the Great Wall</a>, weather allowing. We leave on Saturday morning, to a wild section of the Great Wall, untouched by China\'s tourism department and hidden deep in a valley in Huairou\'s mountains North of Beijing. We then spend two days climbing the old sections of the Great Wall, exploring one of mankind\'s greatest constructions, and the nature around it. For the night we return to an old little village close to the wall, once built to supply the soldiers manning the watchtowers. We then all join in for a traditional Chinese farmers dinner and watch the clear skies above the Northern Mountains, followed by joining a local village festival or just enjoying the quiet and peace.\r\n\r\n<em>Cost: 1,000 RMB, includes, transport to and from the wall, food, drinks, guide, accommodation (single rooms) and entrance tickets.</em> <em>As the Great Wall trip usually gets full very early, we suggest to reserve a place beforehand if you want to go.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3558" alt="skiing in Beijing" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>After the first week</span></strong>\r\n\r\nCommunity is very important for us at LTL, and plenty of movie nights, clubbing, parties, and dinners are organized regularly by students and often teachers as well. In addition the school organizes activities for traditional Chinese holidays, dinners, activities, school trips in the summer, <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/ghost-tour-beijing">beijing ghost tours</a> and skiing holidays in the winter. Providing an environment that allows students to get known to each other is a priority at LTL. People studying here are usually from very different backgrounds but are all fascinated by China, want to learn Mandarin, and explore this amazing country. That is what makes making friends so easy and rewarding. For a language holiday China offers a wide range of entertainment and we welcome you to be part of our little version of the United Nations in China\'s capital.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3577" alt="Beijing Guo An" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>The LIGAF</span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs true Beijingers we of course support our local football team, Beijing Guo An. The LTL International Beijing Guo An Football Fan Club (LIGAF) meets for all home games and joins 50,000 Chinese football fans for a night of football, learning Chinese swearwords for the referee and other people we do not like, as well as singing not always 100% politically correct songs to support our team. Even if you are not a football fan, this is something that should be part of any language holiday in China. 国安必胜！\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Our WeChat Group</span></strong>\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/bike6.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5458" alt="Chinese Terracotta Warriors" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/bike6-300x199.jpg" width="300" height="199" /></a></span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs facebook is blocked in China, we WeChat (微信) is the software that most Chinese use to communicate with each other. It is similar to WhatsApp, though it also has elements of other social media and a unique "look around" function to make new friends.\r\n\r\nThe first thing all LTL students do is join our LTL WeChat group, best even a week before arriving in Beijing. This is where you have the contacts of all other LTL students and a great place to meet other students whom you have not met yet at the school. It is also where everyone plans weekend trips, dinners and sightseeing tours together, as well as share pictures and stories. Try downloading the application before coming to China, if there are any problems do not worry however, we show all our new students on the first day how to join.\r\n\r\nGroups in WeChat are private and our group is only accessible to current or past LTL students. If you have not signed up for a course and want to read more about LTL  check the <a title="Study Chinese" href="http://www.facebook.com/livethelanguage" target="_blank">LTL facebook site</a>.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">The LTL Xian Trip</span></strong>\r\n\r\nWhen Beijing was nothing but a small fishing village, Xian was the capital of China\'s empire, the starting and end point of the Silk Road, and probably the world\'s main city at the time - bigger than Rome and wealthier than Venice. Join us on a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/xian-trip">weekend trip</a> to visit one of the best preserved Chinese city walls and of course the fabled Terracotta Warriors.\r\n\r\n[hr style=dotted-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">LTL Student\'s Stories</span></strong>\r\n\r\n[caption id="attachment_5561" align="alignright" width="300"]<a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Sabrina-small-wall.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5561" alt="Sabrina, 2nd from left, with classmates at the Great Wall" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Sabrina-small-wall-300x248.jpg" width="300" height="248" /></a> Sabrina, 2nd from left, with classmates at the Great Wall[/caption]\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>An awesome experience</strong></span>\r\n\r\nI found it very easy to make friends at LTL, as the school has a very social environment and a great international student community. I already met the first people during the welcome breakfast on the first day of school. During the school Beijing duck dinner and the lunches on campus I started to meet people outside my class and made a lot of new friends from all over the world. On my first weekend I went out clubbing with a group of fellow students on Friday, spent Saturday at the Summer Palace with them and then Sunday in the Forbidden City with another LTL student. I found the LTL student community extremely friendly and open to new arrivals, I had a wonderful time and made friends with a lot of very interesting people, whom I will miss a lot.\r\n\r\n<strong>- Sabrina, Germany</strong>\r\n\r\n<em>Four weeks <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/">small group &amp; individual</a>, <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/beijing-homestay/">homestay</a>, and <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/service-kits/">survival kit</a></em>', 'Language Holiday in China', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '4543-revision-v1', '', '', '2014-01-22 05:43:18', '2014-01-22 05:43:18', '', 4543, 'http://ltl-chinois.fr/4543-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0) ;

It is up to each student to decide which activities to participate in or whether to get involved in the school social life at all. If you prefer to fully focus on your studies, the choice is yours, but the option to join is always available.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">LTL Students</span></strong>\r\n\r\nOur students come from all over the world to Beijing to study Chinese, learn more about Chinese culture, and discover this fascinating country together. You classmates will be from tropical islands, Siberia, Europe, the US or just about any other place in the world with a flight connection to China. They might spend a whole year here to achieve full fluency, are in Beijing as part of a language holiday in China or university program, do an <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/internship-in-china/" target="_blank">internship</a> or work in China after studying Chinese.\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Community</strong></span>\r\n\r\nStudents at LTL are a very sociable bunch, with plenty of dinners, karaoke sessions, and holiday tours organized together. While you will decide yourself in which school activities you want to participate in, for most people the school quickly becomes a second home. When taking a break on our balcony with classmates, joining other students for lunch in the lounge or just doing homework together in the library you will quickly meet a lot of people from all over the world, all with the same passion: China\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The first week</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWhile for 1-on-1 students and students who studied Chinese before it is possible to join classes every Monday, most new students arrive on the Sunday before a <a title="Group Class starting dates" href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/" target="_blank">group class starting dates</a>. For the first night, we suggest to get some sleep and rest from what was most likely a long flight and prepare what will certainly be an exciting week. Starting dates are every two or three weeks.\r\n\r\n<em>Find below a summary of <strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2837" alt="LTL Mandarin School offers a great community" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a></strong> activities you will be able to take part in during a typical week with a starting date. For students who do not arrive on a starting date, many activities like dinners and karaoke might still be available that week, but some like the welcome breakfast only take place during weeks with a starting date.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Monday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll new students - and many of the old ones - meet at 08:00 at the school for our welcome breakfast. We first go for a walk around the area, to show you where to find the best shops, tastiest restaurants, help with questions and explain a bit about living and studying in Beijing. We then get a traditional Chinese breakfast together, costs vary depending on what you get, but are usually between 5 and 15 RMB.\r\n\r\nAt the school students can then decide what to do for lunch today. Most students order lunch at the LTL reception, which then gets delivered to the school during lunch break and we eat together at the school during the break. A great way to meet other students, but also to avoid the lunch rush, as Beijing\'s CBD is a pretty busy place during lunch hours.\r\n\r\n<em>Note: Please always make sure you order your lunch before 10:00 or the day beforehand with Anna at reception as otherwise restaurants might not be able to deliver in time.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3948" alt="chinese dinner" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a>Tuesday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll students join for the LTL school dinner, either Beijing Duck or Beijing traditional hotpot. Always a fun night out, with plenty of food and drinks, a group of students usually carries on to the Sanlitun bar district afterwards.\r\n\r\nMeet at 18:30 at reception. For costs we share the bill together which usually works out to between 50 and 60 RMB per person.\r\n\r\n<strong>Friday</strong>\r\n\r\nIn Beijing, Friday is karaoke night. We all head out for a big night out Chinese style with plenty of beers, food, and signing. Combined with an all you can eat buffet, there are songs in Chinese and English and you can choose to join in or just listen to the others trying to do so. All levels of musical ability are welcome. Afterwards most students either choose to get some rest to be ready for the Great Wall trip the next day or continue on to one of the many Chinese discos in the area. Cost is usually about 100 RMB per person, including karaoke, food and drinks.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3958" alt="China\'s Great Wall" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>The Weekend</strong>\r\n\r\nOn the weekend we do a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/great-wall-trip">two day language holiday trip to the Great Wall</a>, weather allowing. We leave on Saturday morning, to a wild section of the Great Wall, untouched by China\'s tourism department and hidden deep in a valley in Huairou\'s mountains North of Beijing. We then spend two days climbing the old sections of the Great Wall, exploring one of mankind\'s greatest constructions, and the nature around it. For the night we return to an old little village close to the wall, once built to supply the soldiers manning the watchtowers. We then all join in for a traditional Chinese farmers dinner and watch the clear skies above the Northern Mountains, followed by joining a local village festival or just enjoying the quiet and peace.\r\n\r\n<em>Cost: 1,000 RMB, includes, transport to and from the wall, food, drinks, guide, accommodation (single rooms) and entrance tickets.</em> <em>As the Great Wall trip usually gets full very early, we suggest to reserve a place beforehand if you want to go.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3558" alt="skiing in Beijing" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>After the first week</span></strong>\r\n\r\nCommunity is very important for us at LTL, and plenty of movie nights, clubbing, parties, and dinners are organized regularly by students and often teachers as well. In addition the school organizes activities for traditional Chinese holidays, dinners, activities, school trips in the summer, <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/ghost-tour-beijing">beijing ghost tours</a> and skiing holidays in the winter. Providing an environment that allows students to get known to each other is a priority at LTL. People studying here are usually from very different backgrounds but are all fascinated by China, want to learn Mandarin, and explore this amazing country. That is what makes making friends so easy and rewarding. For a language holiday China offers a wide range of entertainment and we welcome you to be part of our little version of the United Nations in China\'s capital.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3577" alt="Beijing Guo An" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>The LIGAF</span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs true Beijingers we of course support our local football team, Beijing Guo An. The LTL International Beijing Guo An Football Fan Club (LIGAF) meets for all home games and joins 50,000 Chinese football fans for a night of football, learning Chinese swearwords for the referee and other people we do not like, as well as singing not always 100% politically correct songs to support our team. Even if you are not a football fan, this is something that should be part of any language holiday in China. 国安必胜！\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Our WeChat Group</span></strong>\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/bike6.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-5458" alt="Chinese Terracotta Warriors" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/bike6-300x199.jpg" width="300" height="199" /></a></span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs facebook is blocked in China, WeChat (微信) is the software that most Chinese use to communicate with each other. It is similar to WhatsApp, though it also has elements of other social media software too and a unique "look around" function to make new friends.\r\n\r\nThe first thing all LTL students do is join our LTL WeChat group, preferably even before arriving in Beijingou are up to date about what\'s going once you arrived. This is where you have the contacts of all other LTL students and it is a great place to meet other students whom you have not met yet at the school. It is also where everyone plans weekend trips, dinners and sightseeing tours together, as well as share pictures and stories. Try downloading the application before coming to China, if there are any problems do not worry however, we show all our new students on the first day how to join.\r\n\r\nGroups in WeChat are private and our group is only accessible to current or past LTL students. If you have not signed up for a course and want to read more about LTL  check the <a title="Study Chinese" href="http://www.facebook.com/livethelanguage" target="_blank">LTL facebook site</a> or <a href="www.livethelanguage.cn/contact-us/">contact us</a> to talk to someone who is currently studying at LTL.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">The LTL Xian Trip</span></strong>\r\n\r\nWhen Beijing was nothing but a small fishing village, Xian was the capital of China\'s empire, the starting and end point of the Silk Road, and probably the world\'s main city at the time - bigger than Rome and wealthier than Venice. Join us on a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/xian-trip">weekend trip</a> to visit one of the best preserved Chinese city walls and of course the fabled Terracotta Warriors.\r\n\r\n[hr style=dotted-line margin_top=20 margin_bottom=20]\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;">LTL Student\'s Stories</span></strong>\r\n\r\n[caption id="attachment_5561" align="alignright" width="300"]<a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Sabrina-small-wall.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-5561" alt="Sabrina, 2nd from left, with classmates at the Great Wall" src="http://ltl-chinois.fr/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Sabrina-small-wall-300x248.jpg" width="300" height="248" /></a> Sabrina, 2nd from left, with classmates at the Great Wall[/caption]\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>An awesome experience</strong></span>\r\n\r\nI found it very easy to make friends at LTL, as the school has a very social environment and a great international student community.

Check with your local embassy.</li>\r\n	<li>If you need a multiple entry visa, please let us know and we will be happy to send you an invitation for multiple entries (no extra charges).</li>\r\n	<li>It can be a good idea to apply via a local visa agent if that agent is experienced in dealing with your local Chinese embassy. Regulations and practices can vary widely from embassy to embassy and not always all information is written on their websites. An agent who is familiar with actual practices might be able to save you a lot of time. We have a list of <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/chinese-visa-service-agencies/">Chinese visa agencies</a> in different countries that our students used in the past, if you have any additions to it or feedback on any of the agents, please <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/contact-us/">contact us</a>.</li>\r\n	<li>So far <strong>all</strong> LTL students and interns have successfuly received visas and visa extensions for their full stay with LTL, however The final decision for visas and extensions is always made by the Chinese embassy and cannot be controlled by LTL.</li>\r\n	<li>Check the duration of your visa and if you need an extension in China, please let us know at least three weeks before your visa expries.</li>\r\n	<li>Do not try to enter China without a visa. Do not overstay your visa once you are in China.</li>\r\n	<li>Chinese law requires foreigners to register with their local Chinese station within 24 hours of arrival. If you need help with this, consider one of the <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/service-kits/">LTL survival kits</a>.</li>\r\n	<li>If you have any questions regarding visas, the application process, or extensions in China, please<a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/contact-us/"> contact us </a>at any time.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n[/list]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;', 'China Visa Application Guidelines', '', 'inherit', 'open', 'open', '', '2141-revision-v1', '', '', '2013-09-04 04:04:29', '2013-09-04 04:04:29', '', 2141, 'http://ltl-chinois.fr/2141-revision-v1/', 0, 'revision', '', 0) ;

You classmates will be from tropical islands, Siberia, Europe, the US or just about any other place in the world with a flight connection to China. They might spend a whole year here to achieve full fluency, are in Beijing as part of a language holiday in China or university program, do an <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/internship-in-china/" target="_blank">internship</a> or work in China after studying Chinese.\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Community</strong></span>\r\n\r\nStudents at LTL are a very sociable bunch, with plenty of dinners, karaoke sessions, and holiday tours organized together. While you will decide yourself in which school activities you want to participate in, for most people the school quickly becomes a second home. When taking a break on our balcony with classmates, joining other students for lunch in the lounge or just doing homework together in the library you will quickly meet a lot of people from all over the world, all with the same passion: China\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The first week</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWhile for 1-on-1 students and students who studied Chinese before it is possible to join classes every Monday, most new students arrive on the Sunday before a <a title="Group Class starting dates" href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/" target="_blank">group class starting dates</a>. For the first night, we suggest to get some sleep and rest from what was most likely a long flight and prepare what will certainly be an exciting week. Starting dates are every two or three weeks.\r\n\r\n<em>Find below a summary of <strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2837" alt="LTL Mandarin School offers a great community" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a></strong> activities you will be able to take part in during a typical week with a starting date. For students who do not arrive on a starting date, many activities like dinners and karaoke might still be available that week, but some like the welcome breakfast only take place during weeks with a starting date.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Monday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll new students - and many of the old ones - meet at 08:00 at the school for our welcome breakfast. We first go for a walk around the area, to show you where to find the best shops, tastiest restaurants, help with questions and explain a bit about living and studying in Beijing. We then get a traditional Chinese breakfast together, costs vary depending on what you get, but are usually between 5 and 15 RMB.\r\n\r\nAt the school students can then decide what to do for lunch today. Most students order lunch at the LTL reception, which then gets delivered to the school during lunch break and we eat together at the school during the break. A great way to meet other students, but also to avoid the lunch rush, as Beijing\'s CBD is a pretty busy place during lunch hours.\r\n\r\n<em>Note: Please always make sure you order your lunch before 10:00 or the day beforehand with Anna at reception as otherwise restaurants might not be able to deliver in time.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3948" alt="chinese dinner" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a>Tuesday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll students join for the LTL school dinner, either Beijing Duck or Beijing traditional hotpot. Always a fun night out, with plenty of food and drinks, a group of students usually carries on to the Sanlitun bar district afterwards.\r\n\r\nMeet at 18:30 at reception. For costs we share the bill together which usually works out to between 50 and 60 RMB per person.\r\n\r\n<strong>Friday</strong>\r\n\r\nIn Beijing, Friday is karaoke night. We all head out for a big night out Chinese style with plenty of beers, food, and signing. Combined with an all you can eat buffet, there are songs in Chinese and English and you can choose to join in or just listen to the others trying to do so. All levels of musical ability are welcome. Afterwards most students either choose to get some rest to be ready for the Great Wall trip the next day or continue on to one of the many Chinese discos in the area. Cost is usually about 100 RMB per person, including karaoke, food and drinks.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3958" alt="China\'s Great Wall" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>The Weekend</strong>\r\n\r\nOn the weekend we do a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/great-wall-trip">two day language holiday trip to the Great Wall</a>, weather allowing. We leave on Saturday morning, to a wild section of the Great Wall, untouched by China\'s tourism department and hidden deep in a valley in Huairou\'s mountains North of Beijing. We then spend two days climbing the old sections of the Great Wall, exploring one of mankind\'s greatest constructions, and the nature around it. For the night we return to an old little village close to the wall, once built to supply the soldiers manning the watchtowers. We then all join in for a traditional Chinese farmers dinner and watch the clear skies above the Northern Mountains, followed by joining a local village festival or just enjoying the quiet and peace.\r\n\r\n<em>Cost: 1,000 RMB, includes, transport to and from the wall, food, drinks, guide, accommodation (single rooms) and entrance tickets.</em> <em>As the Great Wall trip usually gets full very early, we suggest to reserve a place beforehand if you want to go.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3558" alt="skiing in Beijing" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>After the first week</span></strong>\r\n\r\nCommunity is very important for us at LTL, and plenty of movie nights, clubbing, parties, and dinners are organized regularly by students and often teachers as well. In addition the school organizes activities for traditional Chinese holidays, dinners, activities, school trips in the summer and skiing holidays in the winter. Providing an environment that allows students to get known to each other is a priority at LTL. People studying here are usually from very different backgrounds but are all fascinated by China, want to learn Mandarin, and explore this amazing country. That is what makes making friends so easy and rewarding. For a language holiday China offers a wide range of entertainment and we welcome you to be part of our little version of the United Nations in China\'s capital.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3577" alt="Beijing Guo An" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>The LIGAF</span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs true Beijingers we of course support our local football team, Beijing Guo An. The LTL International Beijing Guo An Football Fan Club (LIGAF) meets for all home games and joins 50,000 Chinese football fans for a night of football, learning Chinese swearwords for the referee and other people we do not like, as well as singing not always 100% politically correct songs to support our team.

During the school Beijing duck dinner and the lunches on campus I started to meet people outside my class and made a lot of new friends from all over the world. On my first weekend I went out with a group of fellow students on Friday, spent Saturday at the Summer Palace with them and then Sunday in the Forbidden City with another LTL student.

You classmates will be from tropical islands, Siberia, Europe, the US or just about any other place in the world with a flight connection to China. They might spend a whole year here to achieve full fluency, are in Beijing as part of a language holiday in China or university program, do an <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/internship-in-china/" target="_blank">internship</a> or work in China after studying Chinese.\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Community</strong></span>\r\n\r\nStudents at LTL are a very sociable bunch, with plenty of dinners, karaoke sessions, and holiday tours organized together. While you will decide yourself in which school activities you want to participate in, for most people the school quickly becomes a second home. When taking a break on our balcony with classmates, joining other students for lunch in the lounge or just doing homework together in the library you will quickly meet a lot of people from all over the world, all with the same passion: China\r\n\r\n<span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The first week</strong></span>\r\n\r\nWhile for 1-on-1 students and students who studied Chinese before it is possible to join classes every Monday, most new students arrive on the Sunday before a <a title="Group Class starting dates" href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/learn-chinese-beijing/group-classes/" target="_blank">group class starting dates</a>. For the first night, we suggest to get some sleep and rest from what was most likely a long flight and prepare what will certainly be an exciting week. Starting dates are every two or three weeks.\r\n\r\n<em>Find below a summary of <strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2837" alt="LTL Mandarin School offers a great community" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/COMMUNITY-2-1-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a></strong> activities you will be able to take part in during a typical week with a starting date. For students who do not arrive on a starting date, many activities like dinners and karaoke might still be available that week, but some like the welcome breakfast only take place during weeks with a starting date.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>Monday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll new students - and many of the old ones - meet at 08:00 at the school for our welcome breakfast. We first go for a walk around the area, to show you where to find the best shops, tastiest restaurants, help with questions and explain a bit about living and studying in Beijing. We then get a traditional Chinese breakfast together, costs vary depending on what you get, but are usually between 5 and 15 RMB.\r\n\r\nAt the school students can then decide what to do for lunch today. Most students order lunch at the LTL reception, which then gets delivered to the school during lunch break and we eat together at the school during the break. A great way to meet other students, but also to avoid the lunch rush, as Beijing\'s CBD is a pretty busy place during lunch hours.\r\n\r\n<em>Note: Please always make sure you order your lunch before 10:00 or the day beforehand with Anna at reception as otherwise restaurants might not be able to deliver in time.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-3948" alt="chinese dinner" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/chinese-dinner-300x224.jpg" width="300" height="224" /></a>Tuesday</strong>\r\n\r\nAll students join for the LTL school dinner, either Beijing Duck or Beijing traditional hotpot. Always a fun night out, with plenty of food and drinks, a group of students usually carries on to the Sanlitun bar district afterwards.\r\n\r\nMeet at 18:30 at reception. For costs we share the bill together which usually works out to between 50 and 60 RMB per person.\r\n\r\n<strong>Friday</strong>\r\n\r\nIn Beijing, Friday is karaoke night. We all head out for a big night out Chinese style with plenty of beers, food, and signing. Combined with an all you can eat buffet, there are songs in Chinese and English and you can choose to join in or just listen to the others trying to do so. All levels of musical ability are welcome. Afterwards most students either choose to get some rest to be ready for the Great Wall trip the next day or continue on to one of the many Chinese discos in the area. Cost is usually about 100 RMB per person, including karaoke, food and drinks.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3958" alt="China\'s Great Wall" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/a531243_4418867633996_1699477318_n-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>The Weekend</strong>\r\n\r\nOn the weekend we do a <a href="http://ltl-chinois.fr/great-wall-trip">two day language holiday trip to the Great Wall</a>, weather allowing. We leave on Saturday morning, to a wild section of the Great Wall, untouched by China\'s tourism department and hidden deep in a valley in Huairou\'s mountains North of Beijing. We then spend two days climbing the old sections of the Great Wall, exploring one of mankind\'s greatest constructions, and the nature around it. For the night we return to an old little village close to the wall, once built to supply the soldiers manning the watchtowers. We then all join in for a traditional Chinese farmers dinner and watch the clear skies above the Northern Mountains, followed by joining a local village festival or just enjoying the quiet and peace.\r\n\r\n<em>Cost: 1,000 RMB, includes, transport to and from the wall, food, drinks, guide, accommodation (single rooms) and entrance tickets.</em> <em>As the Great Wall trip usually gets full very early, we suggest to reserve a place beforehand if you want to go.</em>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-3558" alt="skiing in Beijing" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/SAM_1808-300x225.jpg" width="300" height="225" /></a>After the first week</span></strong>\r\n\r\nCommunity is very important for us at LTL, and plenty of movie nights, clubbing, parties, and dinners are organized regularly by students and often teachers as well. In addition the school organizes activities for traditional Chinese holidays, dinners, activities, school trips in the summer and skiing holidays in the winter. Providing an environment that allows students to get known to each other is a priority at LTL. People studying here are usually from very different backgrounds but are all fascinated by China, want to learn Mandarin, and explore this amazing country. That is what makes making friends so easy and rewarding. For a language holiday China offers a wide range of entertainment and we welcome you to be part of our little version of the United Nations in China\'s capital.\r\n\r\n<strong><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-3577" alt="Beijing Guo An" src="http://new.livethelanguage.cn/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fans-small-150x150.jpg" width="150" height="150" /></a>The LIGAF</span></strong>\r\n\r\nAs true Beijingers we of course support our local football team, Beijing Guo An. The LTL International Beijing Guo An Football Fan Club (LIGAF) meets for all home games and joins 50,000 Chinese football fans for a night of football, learning Chinese swearwords for the referee and other people we do not like, as well as singing not always 100% politically correct songs to support our team.

I already met the first people during the welcome breakfast on the first day of school. During the school Beijing duck dinner and the lunches on campus I started to meet people outside my class and made a lot of new friends from all over the world. On my first weekend I went out clubbing with a group of fellow students on Friday, spent Saturday at the Summer Palace with them and then Sunday in the Forbidden City with another LTL student.
