My objective for coming to China is to improve my Mandarin skills. After doing some online research, I found a lot of good reviews about the chinese program offered by the Beijing Language and Culture University. I read that the foreign students having studied in this institution became very fluent in this language and all of them recommended this course for people interested in learning Mandarin. Given that I am highly motivated to improve my Chinese speaking and listening skills, it is obvious that I should not miss this opportunity to apply to this university.
