Mandarin

Children take small steps in learning Mandarin. Starting from age 3, we nurture interest through singing & crafting. Speech comes first.

Vocabulary building starts from storytelling. Each step takes the children through a lifelong learning process. Simple interactive lessons with flashcards enhances memory and character recognition.

Calligraphy is introduced from age 4, giving young children the chance to pick up a brush and explore the graceful strokes of Chinese writing. Every stroke is like a piece of puzzle. When a Chinese character is formed, the puzzle is completed.

With calligraphy, songs, rhymes and visual cues, Mandarin classes create a joyful path to literacy and cultural appreciation.
