¨ A Long History – LCC was established in 1956. Over the past six decades, about 20,000 students from more than 100 countries have studied here, including former US president George H. W. Bush, former Australian prime minister Kevin Michael Rudd, former Indian president Kocheril Raman Narayanan and over 280 ambassadors. We have also been sending Chinese teachers to the Royal Palace of Thailand to teach HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn since 1983.

¨ A Strong Faculty – LCC boasts a team of over 40 highly experienced professional teachers. Most of them hold certificates of Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. Languages they speak include English, French, Japanese, German, Russian, Spanish and Polish (as media language).

¨ Pleasant Environment – Located in the embassy quarter, LCC has a teaching building of 3,000 square meters with easy access and elegant environment. LCC is an MOE-approved HSK test center and off-campus test center of overseas universities. LCC also provides training venue for various institutions.

¨ Our Courses – LCC offers both individual lessons and small classes including Chinese, some other languages, Chinese culture, art, computer studies, etc. In addition, LCC organizes cultural lectures, study tours and winter/summer camps on a regular basis.

¨ Self-developed Textbooks – LCC has more than 30 self-developed textbooks, which cater to different needs of learners and offer a combination of practicality and interest. Some textbooks were awarded excellent textbooks by the Ministry of Education, and some books’ copyrights were purchased by foreign publishers. Particularly, the series of Experiencing Chinese is widely popular among learners.
