Alpine Education is proud to unveil Base Camp, a pioneering, pre-study abroad, Western education-training program. Base Camp is designed to familiarize and prepare Chinese students for comfort and success with U.S. elite education institutions. Working with students and parents, Base Camp ensures whole child achievement in U.S. education through careful consideration of students’ strengths, weaknesses, interests, and goals.
The first-of-its-kind, pre-study abroad program prepares students for, and eases their transition into, elite U.S. boarding and day schools. Cognizant of the cultural gap existing between the U.S. and Chinese education traditions, Base Camp prepares students to bridge this gap before they arrive in boarding school.
