The Bilingual Entry Level course utilizes the 'Young Chinese' Dialogue Starter textbook. 'Young Chinese - Developing Speaking Skills' is a ten-year curriculum designed for international learners who have limited opportunities to practice speaking in their daily lives but want to build language skills from a young age. We create a friendly learning environment, making it the best place for you to learn.

1. For kids aged around 5 who know no Chinese at all or least Chinese.
2. Learners will learn 85 characters and 30 bisyllabic words and will be able to recite 12 simple poems.
