Sample Sentences

最明显的强项当然是各种数据资料的搜集和整理，帮助学生达到申请门槛，但是当地的接待、学习态度与学习技巧的灌输就显得不足了，光是寄宿家庭这一块，如果能有熟门熟路的当地人帮忙找出文化冲突比较少的寄宿家庭，立刻就会超前许多竞争对手的。

The most obvious strength is of course searching for and organizing all kinds of data, to help students meet the entry requirements. But local hosts, and information on attitudes towards studying and studying techniques are not sufficient. Even just with the homestay part, if we can find savvy locals who can help find homestays likely to cause less culture clashes, we'll already be well ahead of the competition.

Of course! These foreigners usually have a deep interest in Chinese language and culture. They want to really experience Chinese people's everyday life and understand China. The most important thing is to have a language environment where they can quickly improve their level of Chinese. Chinese families providing lodging not only can make a bit of money, they can also easily practice a bit of English. So why not do it?
