Mandarin Program

Our twice-weekly Mandarin Program follow a developmentally correct curriculum and introduces Mandarin at an early age, making the learning process fun and creative. Games and activities are used as younger learners develop their receptive skills much faster than their productive skills. This is important to keep in mind, as we create the basis for a more profound study of language in the future. This approach encourages spontaneous language production; it helps students develop the ability to use the language in a proper and meaningful context, much in the same way that they learn their own language.
