profound commitment to Mandarin teaching, said Xu. It opened in 2017 a
spectacular Chinese classroom that promises to further enhance the Mandarin
learning experience for students and teachers.

all the help and support in enhancing my university experience and personal
academic development,"" she said.

course in acupuncture, whose practical aspects of training can be conducted in
the institute's own on-site clinics.
