A great opportunity to start learning Chinese (Mandarin). Students will learn to speak elementary Chinese, including Chinese pronunciation and common greetings. Students will learn to read and write pronunciation symbols (Zhu-In-Fu-Hau) and a few basic Chinese characters. Students will also be exposed to Chinese traditions and culture through cultural and academic activities. Continued participation of children and parents is expected. Once a student (child age 5 to adults) is signed up for the program, maximum effort of attendance is expected. Students 18 and older will be separated from children except for guardians with children who register for the same class. Students will be promoted to a higher level after one semester of study with a satisfactory performance. There is no prerequisite.
