Ep 1美国斯坦福游学答疑

问题一:斯坦福之行我们是否包含签证?我们是统一给大家办理美国十年自由往返签证的,我们签证通过率高的原因就是因为我们是游学,不是单纯的旅游,我们是有信用背书的哦!所以大家参加我们的活动以后就有良好的出入境美国的签证记录了,这样大家以后无论申请任何国家的签证几乎都可以通过了。比如:加拿大、英国、很多国家都是看你有没有美国签证的呦!问题二:我们此次活动费用是不是全部包含的?我们此次活动的费用是包含中美往返机票、一次签证申请费、美国期间的吃喝住行以及上课全部包含的,换句话说除了自己的个人消费以外,其他我们全部包含的!报名的朋友如果不带钱,拿上护照就可以跟我们好好出去学习一次了!问题三:我们为什么只收15人?我们的活动到底与其他游学及旅游有什么区别?我们在上课期间的住宿不是酒店哦,而是斯坦福教授公寓哦!这是一般旅游团无法做到的!其次我们是要在斯坦福大学好好学习两天,由斯坦福教授亲自授课。这是非常难得的机会,再者我们绝不是上车睡觉下车拍照的旅行,我们会像美国当地人一样生活,吃西餐、住house,开车出去购物,如果时间允许,我们还会去一些大家想去的地方放松。我们是一次度假的完美之旅,这样也就决定了我们的行程不可以接受太多的朋友,因为人多了我们的照顾就不一定周到了,所以我希望给大家带来的是一次品质之旅哦!问题四:斯坦福的上课主要以什么样的内容为主?有结业证书吗?有结业证书。上课内容主要以发音学习为主。跟Emily一直在学习的朋友都会担心自己英文说的不够好,很多朋友可能都没有学过音标。那么此次斯坦福之行,我们就请lisa教授为大家从英语的发音给大家纠正与学习,让大家通过此次活动以后学习英文有个好的发音基础!Emily会全程陪同大家一起学习,而且lisa教授也会配备随行翻译,所以大家更加不用担心自己听不懂哦!以上是大家问的比较多的问题,如果大家还有问题可以随时私信我或者私信我的助理高老师,他的微信号是18061459029.
