Tip 4

Try to find a centre that has a good mix of both local AND

multi-national students.

Your progress is likely to be much faster and your overall

experience much better if your centre attracts students from

different countries worldwide.

Learning English, for example, in a class where

everybody speaks Cantonese can be frustrating if you really

want to practice speaking English as much as possible.

In this environment, naturally, students often rely on their

native language to communicate amongst

themselves as it is much easier.

Studying English in a class made up of lots of different nationalities encourages everyone to speak and practice English more

frequently and as a result your progress will be faster.

Tip 5

Choose a Hong Kong Language School that offers a pleasant environment, good

facilities and a great location.

Tip 5

Choose a Hong Kong language centre that offers a

pleasant environment, good facilities and a great location.

Your centre should be well lit, offer spacious, clean classrooms and small

class sizes.

It is bad for your learning experience to be crammed into small, dark, rarely cleaned

classrooms filled with high numbers of students.

Also, make sure your centre is within easy reach of good public transport and

pleasant eating establishments….

….this will avoid difficulties getting to and from your language centre every day and ensure your breaks for lunch or morning

coffee are more enjoyable.
