二．华语之桥 Chinese summer camps in Hangzhou and Beijing in 2012As it approaches to the year end, many families begin to look for summer programs in China for their children to further improve Mandarin skills. A parent meeting in late Nov gathered many families with kids in Mandarin immersion. They all hope to take their children to China at some point. I just want to add that Sino Language Gateway is offering multiple summer camps in Hangzhou and Beijing in 2012. Hangzhou is a beautiful city near Shanghai (only 60miles away) that is famous for its beautiful scenery. There will be 4 sessions in Hangzhou and 3 sessions in Beijing that run from late June to early Aug, each is 3 weeks long. The Hangzhou program is endorsed and partially funded by the Hangzhou government that brings the cost down for over $1000 cheaper than most other similar summer camps available in the U.S. It truly is a great bargain for families interested in summer programs in China. It combines the best price with the best service ever. For program details please see http://www.sinolanguage.org/programs/news_item.asp?NewsID=203
There are many arrangements in the program to allow participants get direct interaction with local kids, such as the 1-on-1 Chinese conversation. A camp itinerary can tell how your kid will spend their time - http://www.sinolanguage.org/PDFs/Hangzhou/LCH121.pdf The program accommodates parent and sibling, and accepts children of age 10 (Hangzhou program), or age 8 (Beijing program). The program has a diversified student body as participants joining from 20+ countries worldwide. It's exciting to see kids from around the world learning Chinese together. It would be a very encouraging experience to the kids themselves.
See a program flyer - http://www.sinolanguage.org/PDFs/hangzhou/hangzhouflyer_En.pdf. Please spread the news to the families interested in visiting China. Questions or inquiries please call (408)360-9958 or email to info@sinolanguage.org.

This language-immersion program includes intensive language classes divided by ability levels in the morning and cultural classes in the afternoon. The program also includes extensive travel and weekly sightseeing excursions in Beijing, Chengdu and Shanghai.
Begin your summer in China in the capital. Your Chinese host families and the world-famous Olympic venues such as the Bird’s Nest and Water Cube await you in Beijing. This year’s Landon-in-China program will introduce you to the bustling streets of China’s largest cities, as well as to Chinese life at its most basic. While in Beijing, you will have classes in the morning on week days and visit the most famous landmarks of China, including Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall as well as the Summer Palace and the Temple of Heaven.
Continue your travel and immersion home stay program in Chengdu. You will have opportunity to see the Giant Buddha, visit the Panda Research Center of China where you will see many pandas and have an opportunity to have your picture taken with a panda. We will also visit the home of most famous Chinese Tang Dynasty poet, Du Fu.
You will fly to Shanghai and visit the Shanghai museums and the world famous China Pavilion of the 2010 World Expo and explore the Bund and Nanjing Road and get a bird’s eye view of the entire city of Shanghai atop of the “Oriental Pearl Tower.” You will fly back to the United States with the group and arrive home on August 17, 2012.
*Cost: $4,695.00 (Please Note: Dates, itinerary and price are subject to change.)
INDIVIDUAL INTERNSHIPS in areas of students’ interests are also available for an additional fee. Past internships have included opportunities to work with professors at top Chinese universities (Peking University, Tsinghua University and People’s University in Beijing) in history, US-China relations and bio-physics while living in professors’ homes.
YOUR ADVISOR in China will be Dr. Dali Tan. Dr. Tan is a Chinese teacher at Landon School in Bethesda, MD. A native of Shenyang, she has led China travel study tours for students from Landon and St. Catherine’s School in Richmond, Virginia. She also helped establish the ESL exchange component of the “Landon-in-China” program, which brings Chinese students to the Landon campus for instruction and cultural exchange. She is the past president of the Chinese Language Association for Secondary and Elementary Schools and was a member of the AP Chinese course and exam development committee of the College Board.
