Our Mission

Learning Chinese can be easy.  It depends on your goals and how you study.  If you only learn to speak it, you will easily forget it. To learn a language effectively, you must learn to speak, read, and write it.  Then you will understand it.

.

Speaking: We teach Mandarin, the official language in China.  It is the most useful of the thousands of Chinese dialects.

Writing: Writing Chinese is simple.  There are eight basic strokes, which are easily taught and mastered.  Our students learn to write simple letters and memorandums.

Reading: We teach our students the basic words so that they can read popular fiction and periodicals. With further study, one could begin to address the masses of material written throughout China’s rich 5,000 year history.  

Understanding: If you can speak, write and read Chinese, understanding follows naturally. However, one must realize that China is a vast land with a long history that encompasses many cultures and nationalities; not even a native could understand everything it has to offer. 

Mastering the basics of Chinese is the keystone for further study.
