In northeastern China, dialects very similar to Mandarin are spoken, which means that the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kunming_dialect\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">local dialect in Kunming<\/a> is very close to standard Mandarin. Despite the existence of many dialects in the Yunnan region, Mandarin tends to be the lingua franca, as opposed to in other regions, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/study-chinese-guangzhou\/\">Guangdong<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/how-to-study-chinese-in-shanghai\/\" >Shanghai<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The cost of living is low<\/strong>: Despite being a relatively large city, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/cost-of-living-in-china\/\" >cost of living in Kunming<\/a> is quite a bit lower than in large coastal cities, at around 20-50% less.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A pleasant climate all year round<\/strong>: Coastal cities in China tend to have a harsh climate with frozen winters and\/or suffocating summers. Kunming has a mountainous subtropical climate and pleasant weather all year round, as temperatures don\u2019t tend to go over 30\u00b0 or below 5\u00b0. It\u2019s no coincidence that they call it the city of eternal spring.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Relatively low pollution<\/strong>: Kunming is a Chinese city with more than four million inhabitants, so don\u2019t expect it to have clean air. However, the pollution in Kunming is much more tolerable than in the majority of large Chinese cities.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A relatively international city<\/strong>: The foreign community in Kunming is relatively large compared to other similar-sized Chinese cities, which also makes it suitable for people who don\u2019t want to adjust their habits excessively when studying in China.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"study-chinese-kunming-2\">The cons of studying Mandarin in Kunming<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"space-list\">\n<li><strong>Far from economic centers<\/strong>: Yunnan is a relatively poor province located quite far from the country\u2019s economic hubs. Because of this, job and business opportunities in Kunming are quite rare compared to in coastal cities (except for in the tourism industry).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Touristy city<\/strong>: Kunming is the starting point for many of the tourists who decide to visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/english\/travel-to-yunnan\/\" >the Yunnan province, which is one of the most popular tourist destinations<\/a> in the country. This means that during tourist season, the city fills up with tourists that affect its normal operation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"study-chinese-kunming-3\">Private schools in Kunming<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"note\">Note: Although we only accept schools that have a good reputation, this list of private schools is a sponsored listing:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Keats Chinese School<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13047\" src=\"https:\/\/www.saporedicina.com\/es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/keats-school.jpg\" alt=\"Keats School\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" \/><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/keatschinese.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">Keats Chinese School<\/a><\/strong> opened its doors in 2004 and is without a doubt one of the best schools for learning Mandarin in the city. It currently offers two types of courses: individual Mandarin classes and Chinese classes in small groups. Keats provides personalized exercises and materials for students who choose individual classes so that they can attain their goals and fulfill their learning needs. One of its main advantages is its flexible schedule for students. Classes in small groups only cost 650 USD for a 16-week course, including a student visa.
