Bridging the Gap in Education Between East and West since 2003 Since 2003 Sino Language & Beyond (SLB) has been a pioneer in the field of bringing teens, children and families Chinese language immersion experience in China. We are U.S based with a focus on China. SLB draws on a long-term presence in both countries, close connections with the local society, and deep understanding of the intercultural, health, and safety issues inherent to study or trip in a foreign country. Our programs are designed to provide excellence in language improvement with ample opportunities to interact with locals and to reflect on the intercultural encounters in structured settings. 2003: SLB was one of the only two organizations in the US offered Chinese language and culture summer camp to China. 2004-2015: SLB has been offering a variety of summer camps in various areas such as Chinese language, culture, service, volunteer, arts, sports etc, and attracted 300+ students from 25 countries around the world in any summer. 2009-now: Built upon its decade of experiences and wide connection with schools and government agencies, SLB expanded its services to schools all over the U.S and the globe.
