Q: HERITAGE A CLASS OR B CLASS ?
To make the most of after school time, choosing the program/class that help children to develop new skills and to enhance child's strengths is the key. We have developed a more diverse curriculum to meet needs of students and parents - Traditional Mandarin Intensive (A) and Mandarin + Activities Classes (B). Each level (1 - 5 level) has A and B class, except for level 6. During registration, parents will be asked to enroll in A - Mandarin Intensive class or B - Mandarin + Math + Performing Art + English class. Here are some features of both classes by comparison:
SIMILARITIES
|
>> Language Foundation
Other than communicating in Mandarin, both A and B classes are also designed to build up solid language foundations to bridge Advanced Mandarin program, AP Mandarin courses and certificate tests.
|
>> Culture Enrichment
Both classes are allowed students to explore the authentic Chinese culture, classic literature, traditional arts and innovation.

Teachers of both classes are highly qualified. They are especially good at differentiating students by their unique learning styles so as to engage them in the class.
