As the summer break approaches, many Chinese parents are making plans to send their children overseas-but no longer just as tourists or language students.
The latest trend is to introduce young people to novel experiences at summer camps run by professional organizations, according to a report on overseas study tours by Ctrip, a major Chinese travel agency.
In addition, those taking part are getting younger. The age range of the children enrolled this year is 8 to 15, three years younger than in 2014, the report said.
Zhang Jie, head of overseas study tours for Ctrip, said parents today want their children to learn new things.
"Before, study tours were basically focused on two aspects: trips to renowned universities or middle schools, or language skills. It was more like preparation for studying overseas," she said. "However, when it comes to camps, it's totally different."
Sun Kai, director of international admissions at Sappo School, a private school in New York's Long Island, said parents hope short-term overseas study will give their children new experiences and help them to build knowledge of the unknown.
"More Chinese parents have chosen camps for their children because school is class-based and cannot cover lots of activities," he said. "Professional summer camps can teach pottery, ballet, piano, violin and martial arts."
隨著暑假日益臨近,國(guó)內(nèi)許多家長(zhǎng)正制定將子女送往國(guó)外的計(jì)劃,不過不再是僅僅作為游客或語言學(xué)習(xí)者。
國(guó)內(nèi)主要旅行機(jī)構(gòu)攜程發(fā)布的游學(xué)報(bào)告顯示,最新趨勢(shì)是參加專業(yè)機(jī)構(gòu)運(yùn)營(yíng)的夏令營(yíng),讓年輕人體驗(yàn)各種新奇的事物。
此外,這些參與者正變得更加年輕化。報(bào)告指出,報(bào)名的孩子的年齡范圍為8-15歲,這一數(shù)字比起2014年要小了3歲。
攜程機(jī)構(gòu)負(fù)責(zé)海外游學(xué)的張杰表示,現(xiàn)在的父母?jìng)兿胱屗麄兊暮⒆訉W(xué)到新的東西。
她說:“以前,海外游學(xué)基本上是聚焦在兩方面:一個(gè)是去著名的大學(xué)或中學(xué),另一個(gè)則是語言技巧。這更像是在為海外留學(xué)做準(zhǔn)備。不過現(xiàn)在的這種夏令營(yíng)則是完全不同的。”
紐約長(zhǎng)島私立學(xué)校賽博中學(xué)的國(guó)際招生負(fù)責(zé)人孫凱表示,家長(zhǎng)希望短期的游學(xué)能帶給孩子新的體驗(yàn),幫助他們擴(kuò)充關(guān)于未知事物的知識(shí)。
孫凱表示:“更多的中國(guó)家長(zhǎng)為子女選擇訓(xùn)練營(yíng),因?yàn)閷W(xué)校以課程為基礎(chǔ),無法涵蓋多種多樣的活動(dòng);而專業(yè)的夏令營(yíng)能教授制陶、芭蕾舞、鋼琴、小提琴和武術(shù)。”
