Learn how to do all the basic things you’ll need to get around Taiwan, how to buy a train ticket, how to order your favourite foods and drinks, how to bargain for your favourite pair of shoes. There’s no better way to get to grips with the Chinese basics than really immersing yourself and getting out there and practising.
Your Chinese language teacher will accompany you at all times on the Kaohsiung Safari program. All LTL teachers are experienced and know their way around Kaohsiung. They’ll make sure that your safari program is suitable for your Mandarin level.
Our Kaohsiung Safari classes are split into 3 parts:

Group lessons seem more social, should I worry?
Just because you are in an 1-on-1 class doesn’t mean you won’t meet people!
