Class Experience

Do you want your little ones to speak more Cantonese? Or learn a new language? 
Learning more than one language can improve memory, improve performance in other academic areas, and even enhance the ability to multi-task! 

This is an 8-week flex class where there are NO live meetings and learners follow a "flexible schedule format", that allows learners to work at any time during each designated week and for the duration of the course. I can be reached in the Outschool classroom and will answer all questions within 24 hours. 

This class is learning simple vocabulary Cantonese. 

Course Outline:
Week 1- My Family
Learn how to say the names of family members. Eg. Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister, Grandmother, Grandfather, etc. 

Week 2- Pets

Week 3- Days of the week

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
I was born in Hong Kong but moved to Canada when I was six years old. Growing up, my family speaks to me in Cantonese so I'm bilingual in Cantonese and English. After graduating from the University of Toronto with an Honors Bachelor of Arts Degree in Economics and Geography, I went back to Hong Kong for work. Working in Hong Kong for ten years has deepened my understanding of Chinese culture and language. I love both languages and use them daily with my family and friends.
