CLI Immersion Progeam

I arrived at CLI in September and studied there for 3 months. The less English you use the better you will be. You should be ready to prepare for classes the night before as well as reviewing what you have already learned. If you do this you will be able to finish one book a month and progress at a steady pace. You will become friends with your teachers which will help when class is rough and you are mentally exhausted. You also need to find Chinese friends outside of the school so you can practice speaking. A majority of the students at CLI only speak English which will mess with your brain and hinder you ability to speak and think in Chinese.
