What Sino-ers and Parents said about us:

Congratulations for another successful immersion Chinese Summer Camp in
Beijing. Both my daughters and I had a wonderful time. I like the way the program integrates Chinese culture, art, geography, history, architecture, and adds fun to the Chinese learning.
Sharon H., mother, CA

Thank you for making the Beijing trip one of the best Christine has ever had. She has told me what a wonderful time she had. She can't wait to go back again. She really didn't want to come home!
Fernando J., father, CO

This summer camp was the best I have ever had so far. I would have never thought this would be so interesting and fun. Not only did I learn about the Chinese culture and Chinese language, but I also made new friends, lived the lifestyle... I would like to thank you again for all the help and support you gave me beforehand and during the camp. It has been such a good experience that I would like to come again next year. I've heard from every student that they miss Beijing and especially at the camp...
Chris T.,(15), France

The camp is a blast. I had a great time going to your camp. I’m glad that I was involved in culture that is so different from the US. This camp helped me giving me a taste of what my Chinese heritage was like.
Christine J., (16), CO

Thank you so so so much!! And I'd like to add that I'm really glad that I came to Sino. The learning experience was so much fun, this is probably one of the funniest memories I've ever had in my life.
Hillary Y., (14), CA

My cousins and I had a wonderful time, and we are eager to visit China in the near future. It was an unforgettable experience, and we made some lifelong friendships.
