10 sessions x 1 Hour Wednesday - Mar 18, 25 | April 1, 15, 22, 29 | May 6, 13, 27 This course is open to students with any level of Chinese background—from complete beginners with no prior exposure to Mandarin to learners ready for intermediate-level challenges. The program is intentionally designed as a mixed-level, topic-based course, reflecting how children naturally learn language. Students learn together through shared themes, stories, projects, and hands-on activities, while working toward individualized language goals based on their experience and readiness. This structure allows beginners to join at any time and enables continuing students to deepen and expand their skills without repetition. Lessons focus on real-life communication and gradually develop all four language skills—listening, speaking, reading (simplified Chinese characters), and introductory writing—in a joyful, age-appropriate way. The curriculum is continuously updated each semester. Each term introduces new topics and projects while thoughtfully combining new language with systematic review, ensuring steady progress for both new and returning students. • The curriculum aligns with YCT and HSK frameworks. • No prior Chinese experience is required.
