A class designed for students who are still in the early beginnings of learning Mandarin! Similar structure to our regular Ya-Ya classes, but taught at a much gentler pace. While some children thrive in an immersion learning environment, some children feel more comfortable with some English used as part of communication. Our ​dynamic ​curriculum integrates music, arts, science, and storytelling to make learning Mandarin fun! This is the perfect class to give your child the time and space needed to embark on this new journey of Mandarin learning! 

  • Mandarin background is not required.

  • This class meets once a week, 60-min each time.
