The Chinese summer camp operated by Shanghai JS Education is the easiest one to find on Google and probably the largest as well. (They did an excellent job in online marketing).
The private Chinese language school Shanghai JS Education was founded in 2005 in Beijing, with one branch now in Shanghai, and another in Suzhou. Shanghai JS Educationis the first Chinese language school in China to combine traditional classroom-based teaching and online learning.
They’ve hosted Chinese language camps for kids and teenagers in Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen in the past years, and this year, they will run camps in Shanghai and Beijing. According to their website, over 3,000 campers have attended their programs since 2008, when the first summer camp was held.
There are five camp start dates in the summer of 2024 – 17 June, 01 July, 15 July, 29 July, and 12 August (full camp programs run only in July. Other programs are available June to August). A typical day consists of cultural activities in the morning and Shanghai JS Educationclasses in the afternoon. Kids aged 10-11 can attend the day camp or the afternoon class-only program, while older kids aged 12-17 can stay overnight in a selected hotel (shared room) near the school or with a Chinese host family. They also offer the option of a customized family camp if you wish to come along and join your kids.
