 Testimonies of Tingyou and Shì-háo, students of National United University (Taiwan) :

"Hi everyone I'm Tingyou. Before I came to France, I was a bit worried about how to adapt to the brand new teaching environment. However, I found out the students in Polytech Lyon are so friendly and willing to learn Chinese. I have so much fun and awesome experience with them. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to do an internship here !"

"Hey, everybody. My name is shì-háo This was my first time in Europe to teach Chinese. I've experienced a lot of different cultures and gained very interesting experiences. The Polytech students impressed me : they have always courage to ask questions and are passionate about learning Chinese. It's an exciting thing for Chinese teachers. We enjoy sharing all Asian cultures to all students. I hope one day you'll all be able to join our class and experience Chinese culture with us !"
