Fun with Pinyin (age 5 - 8)

Pinyin, more formally Hanyu Pinyin, is the Standard Mandarin romanization system used in Mainland China for teaching school children to read, and it is widely used in teaching materials designed for Westerners who wish to learn Mandarin.

Through out the classes, children will learn the correct pinyin (sound) and tone system through songs, games, stories, body movement, and other hands-on activities. They will recognize more Chinese characters with pinyin system and be able to read and pronounce Chinese the proper way by themselves at the end of the class session.

Time: Saturdays, 1:00 – 2:00 am
Fall session fee: $185 per child
(Class fee includes registration fee and material fees.)
