The Startalk Chinese Camp is a 3 1/2 week Chinese immersion experience where high school students can learn Chinese.  Students are housed in BYU on-campus residencies where they can speak, live, and eat (on occasion), like the Chinese! Students participate in traditional and modern Chinese cultural activities and excursions, work closely with qualified Chinese teachers and tutors, and live with native Chinese Resident Facilitators.  At the end of the camp, parents are invited to BYU as the students put on a celebration banquet demonstrating all that they’ve learned and experienced over the 3 1/2 weeks.  At the Startalk Chinese Camp you’ll learn Chinese, experience the culture, make friends for life, and have the most fun all summer!
