"A great way to learn Chinese."

Valerie Teasdale, student from Canada

The schedule was perfect with free time to study and do the homework.
The teacher I had was awesome, great methods and enthousiasm.
Yangshuo is a very beautiful little city. I felt home.
My hotel was also great.

I had a great taichi class in the afternoon. Loved the teacher and the school.

I did not participate at the activities but they seemed very interesting.

The food at the canteen was not really great. I spent a bit in the restaurants around to have something better to eat.

Ask a question

"Hi, I know you don’t do the visa however what is your experience from other students? Chinese government demand per day a 200€ deposit showing on a bankaccount. So a 6 month course would require 180x200 eg 36000 € on a bankstatement. Does this also apply for a studentvisa?"

Donald de Vrind, student from Netherlands
Anya, Omeida Chinese Academy school representative (Manager)

Based on our students' feedback, you don't need to show a bank statement when applying for a student visa. But be aware that it might vary according to country and visa office you are applying from.
