Children's Choice Mandarin Language Immersion Program



This language enrichment program will teach children ranging in ages 2 ½ to 12 years the Mandarin language and Chinese culture. Our Mandarin Chinese instructor graduated from Yale University with a B.A. in Literature, where she studied French and Mandarin. Your children will be immersed in the language through a developmentally appropriate curriculum with engaging games, music, art/crafts, cooking, tones, pictures, character symbols, etc. to involve them in the learning process. We look forward to seeing your children’s progress as they explore the Mandarin language and Chinese culture.
