"The Chinese language course did not reach my expectations."

Martina Huber, student from Malaysia

The classmates where very nice and also the teacher. Sadly, there was only one Chinese teacher, who taught the Chinese Level HSK3 and HSK1. I needed to have a teacher for Level HSK6, so I did self-studying.

They also asked me to pay additionally 100€ for the placement test to find out my Chinese level. This placement test was not really a placement test because the test level was around HSK3, it did not get harder in the end, what you normally expect from a placement test.

For the money I payed for the 4 weeks, I really expected more. And yes, I compare this course with the one I did in China. Perhaps I cannot compare it with the courses in Malaysia and the courses in Malaysia are not so challenging.

The location was not so far away from my house, so it was very comfortable. Sadly we as students were not allowed to use the toilets in the SLC department but had to go to the public toilets instead. Nobody told us why. If they would have told us why, I would understand it. Perhaps it has something to do with the culture or covid etc.

The activities were fun but they were at the studying time and we had to pay for them. So we did not have class and also had to pay additionally.
