Hi everybody,

who knows a alternative school to learn chinesein Dali/Yunnan? It should be a real school, which offers Visa, too (no private teacher!)

I know, its possible to learn Chinese on the Dali College/University. But its really expensive there (6000-7300Yuan/half year, 3-4days, 1,5hour lesson/each day).

Last year there was the yunnanmandarinchineseschool.com. But it seems, it closed already... :/

So if you know another school, please post it here... :-)

你是私人教师？别写你的广告在本论坛！我找的不是私人老师。谢谢！

@Sen
Have you checked that it is actually only 1.5 hrs per day, or are you judging this by previous posts?

Judging by most other univerisity Chinese courses (Shanghai, Hangzhou, Zhengzhou) 6000-7300 rmb is about right for one semester of teaching, without accommodation. But that would normally be 4 hours teaching per day.

I checked it myself; since the previous posts were posted by myself as well....

Does Dali also include accommodation, or anything else, in the fees?
Is the visa fee included?

If not then they are price gouging. But you may not have an alternative.

No accommondation, no visa fee included.

there are some other schools in Dali, but they dont have websites, just phone numbers, so I would appreciate, if someone can post real helpful things....
