Summer 2024 Participant
All the cultural experiences provided by Sun-Yat Sen were very memorable, and the university's campus was so scenic!

Summer 2025 Participant
The element I found most rewarding was learning something new in class and then being able to apply it immediately, whether ordering food, getting my nails done, or simply exploring Gao Xiaong. Specifically, as mentioned earlier, I would get my nails done, and since the appointment would take a few hours, the nail technician and I would try to converse. We'd have to use Google Translate sometimes, especially for the first appointment, but as I continued, the conversations became easier and I was able to communicate much more easily.

Summer 2024 Participant
My favorite part about this program was the camaraderie that I built with all of the other KU students. My teacher was also great -- she held us all to a high standard, but focused more on our improvement rather than our grades.
