Class Experience

This is Chinese with games and music level 1C  class. Students will be able to have a conversation about sea creatures, things in the sky, nature, elements, and plates. Students will be able to recognize, write some Chinese characters and make sentences. This is a Chinese class for beginners.  This is not a Chinese immersion class. Please note we will not be playing Mario in class, but rather this class has a Mario theme to aid in learning Chinese.

If none of the scheduled times work for you, please look at my Flexible Schedule class.

There are a variety of games we will play in class to help your child learn Chinese in an interactive and fun way. I can teach both traditional and simplified Chinese. For this class, students can choose a version of writing in class. 
My classes are small and your child will have the opportunity to share and practice with me and other students.

We will watch a video with Mario jumping around the world with Chinese characters. While watching the video, students will have a chance to observe the world and find basic Chinese characters. After we find a character in the video, we will write and draw Chinese characters together. Students will learn how to write these Chinese characters, draw a picture of the meaning and write the translation in English. I can't wait to explore the Mario world with your child!

Please note we will not be playing Mario in class, but rather this class has a Mario theme to aid in learning Chinese.

I am a native Chinese speaker and have taught Chinese for over ten years from kindergarten to adult learners. I am a certified teacher with experience working at a Chinese immersion school. Throughout my career, I have taught Chinese I, II, III, IV, AP and business Chinese. I have a master's degree in education. I have been using student-centered learning, and I teach language within the culture through art, history, and food.  I would like to share my methods of teaching the Chinese language to children through fun, play, and association.
