Mandarin for Children
Mandarin for Children
There’s nothing like starting early with any subject, particularly where language skills are concerned. For children aged 5-10 we offer fun, lively teaching which may include games and songs but is purposeful, building knowledge organically.
We focus mostly on listening and speaking, using techniques that children relate to. Reading and writing are kept to a minimum, especially for the very young ones. We come to your home. A responsible adult other than the teacher needs to be in attendance.
We will need to talk through your particular case in relation to lesson logistics, but most requests can be met!
Call us to talk through the options for your children.
You might also want to talk to your children’s friends’ parents to get a mini-group together and reduce the cost.
It’s not easy – but it’s worth it.
