Positive aspects of school
The location is very good, many restaurants, cafes, shops in the area. The atomoshpere at the school is very cozy and friendly. The lessons were instructive and interesting (at intermediate level). Teachers had real enthusiasm about teaching. Small class size gave everyone opportunity to interact and practice. Staff offered very useful travel assistance.

You should have enough free time to enjoy the exciting city of Shanghai! Visa info: if you are Japanese, you don't need a visa up to 2 weeks of stay/language course in China (June 2008).
