In this ongoing class, students will learn how to read short conversation in Chinese and apply their skills to real life communication with a Mandarin Chinese native speaker. Each class, students will read a short conversation along in Chinese with Mrs. Moony. Then we'll highlight the new vocabularies, both in Pinyin and simplified Chinese characters. Students are encouraged to read independently afterward in our free talk and interactive games. As an inclusive class, each learner could follow their own path, they will be always engaged to challenge themselves. Finally, we will play online game together on Blooket.com (Blooket is a third party platform that is used to play review games, NO personal information or account needed) to review our class, and the game link will be shared during the class. This class will be taught in English. Students are encouraged to speak Mandarin Chinese as much as they could or would like to. It will be an engaging mandarin group learning environment, and it’s also a good opportunity to make friends and practice mandarin in an age-liked group. It's HIGHLY recommended to finish "Mandarin Chinese Fun Club-Novice Level 1" and "Mandarin Chinese Fun Club-Novice Level 2" before join this class to be more comfortable reading with Pinyin and Chinese Characters.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I had been living in Beijing, one of the most historic city in China for more than 30 years, and grew up in Hutong and kept all the customs generation by generation. I taught mandarin in Oklahoma, US for 2 years and voluntarily provided Chinese culture sharing club in the local public elementary school for 3 years. I LOVE Chinese culture and this unique language. My dream is to support more and more students to know Chinese culture and Mandarin Chinese. I'm passionate to work with children on Chinese cultural learning and Mandarin teaching, because it's not only full of fun for me, but also meaningful for me.
