Chinese Introduction

Our Chinese program also sets us apart, as over 80% of our students are in grade level classes using the same curriculum as Chinese public schools. At the same time, our teachers have extensive experience teaching international students and know the diverse background, nationality, and goals of our students require different methods. Rather than aim for high test scores on Chinese exams, our teachers goal is for our students to become fluent in the Chinese Language and Culture, and be able to express themselves in formal writing or speaking as well as educated local citizens. Beyond the textbook, they use festivals, projects, and Chinese literature to achieve these goals.
