Langston Language offers Chinese study programs in China throughout the year that meet the requirements of Mandarin learners at any level. Whether you are joining us for a summer intensive program, attending one of our 11-week academic term courses, enjoying a one-on-one class designed specifically for you, or working together with us in our paid internship program you will find that Langston offers the perfect opportunity to be immersed in the Chinese language and culture.

Unlike most schools in China, we focus on teaching you how to use the Chinese language rather than what the language is. To reach this goal we use curriculum that was designed specifically to teach westerners useful and usable spoken Chinese. We do this in an environment where you are forced to use Mandarin both inside and outside of the school – we are based in Shenyang, a large, historic city where standard Mandarin Chinese is the local dialect spoken on the street. Langston features small class sizes, low prices, and top-notch teachers. In addition, we supplement our class time with cultural activities and field trips to give you time to use the language in fun and engaging ways.
