"CLI feels like a family. The staff is very welcoming and they help you with everything they can. They definitely make the transition as smooth as possible."- Rosima Molina Ras, Summer 2010

With 20 classrooms, two full kitchens, several lounge areas and 36 private living spaces, CLI provides the perfect space to pursue full proficiency in the Mandarin language.

The majority of all students' coursework is one-on-one, while small group classes are also offered. Students work with several unique teachers along their path to full Mandarin proficiency.

Intensive Chinese classes are often held in the comfort of one's own apartment.
