Learning Chinese has always been a knot in the hearts and minds of many Chinese parents. Even when the desire is there, how to locate the best program that offers high-quality, correct instruction and practical learning solutions remain a daunting task. We understand this deep-seated dilemma, as we have been there as parents ourselves. As such, we have recruited the best language instructors and developed our own in house program, that focuses on the joys of learning, which we have discovered, is the most effective way of grasping and applying the language.
Today, it has become en Vogue to study Mandarin. Our instructors are at the very least - bilingual, who teach in the American education system, work in radio broadcasting, or are scholars who are completing their PhDs here in the US. "small group teaching, happy reading" is our Chinese teaching philosophy.
中文課程，學中文一直是眾多華裔家長心中的心結，對於如何找到正確的、實用的途徑讓孩子學以致用卻多少心有餘力不足，而這裡“讓孩子們在有限的學習時間內捕捉到正確的發音、感受到中文的樂趣、在綜合訓練中學習”自然成為我們的教學重點，這裡的教師有在公立學校任雙語教學的老師，也有從事電台播音工作的工作者，還有身為博士的在美留學人員，“小班教學，快樂讀書”是我們中文教學的理念。
Did you know?
Studies reveal that learning Mandarin uses more parts of the brain than are required for other languages! Whereas English speakers only use the left hemisphere (which mainly controls language), speakers of Mandarin showed brain activity in both hemispheres of the brain. The right hemisphere is particularly interesting — and relevant, because this is the same region that the brain uses to process music and melody through registering different pitches, intonation, and tones.
If you want to take your learning one step further — writing the characters helps with developing motor skills and visual recognition keeps the mind sharp.
