Hi all,

I was wondering whether I could grab some information about what is the best option for me to study Mandarin this September. Basically I've come down to two choices- KUST or Keats. I've researched the latter pretty thoroughly, and was about to dive in when I noticed that KUST offer almost double the class time. I know about class sizes, lack of speaking time etc etc, but can anyone give me any information about what is covered on the course? Is it going to be more beneficial that a small class in a language school that has good feedback?

I'm a elementary student, in that I've been here for 9 months teaching, and have picked up a fair bit of language here and there, but I'm nowhere near intermediate, and still lack some key vocab. I'm going to work my ar*e off this summer, so should be at bit better by the time term begins.

Also, does anyone know which campus the school is on? I've asked if there is still space on the course, and will here back tomorrow.

At the uni, you go at the pace of the course, not the pace of the students. Some people find themselves left behind after a month, and then what?
If you are strong in language study, then a uni might suit you.
