Boarding institutes hope to pass the grade with students

As more Chinese teenagers go abroad to study, the business of hosting them is booming in the United States - and one education facility in Wisconsin wants to turn a 162-room Hilton hotel into a residence for the young guests.

According to Li Ding, founder of Pullin Education, a New Jersey-based consulting company for Chinese students studying abroad, there are many similar organizations or institutes in the US for international students.

"More and more parents are choosing to send their children to the US during high school, thinking that such a living experience would be helpful for their children to better adapt themselves in college," Li said.
