Before we begin, here are what you need to know.
在我们开始之前，这里是您需要了解的信息。
始める前に、こちらをご一読ください。
We welcome adults and families who believe in ownership and a love for learning. We make Chinese engaging, effective, and playful whenever possible—but fun doesn’t mean effortless. We provide the systems, techniques, and strategies to help your child thrive, but their progress ultimately depends on their attitude, willingness to learn, and ability to take action for themselves.
Back in the day, students succeeded because they took ownership of their learning. That hasn’t changed. No method, no teacher, and no program can replace personal commitment. Learning happens when a student shows up for themselves, takes responsibility, and puts what they learn into action.
Is This the Right Fit for You?
If your child is ready to explore Chinese with curiosity, take action, and show up for themselves, we’ll bring out their full potential.
If you’re looking for a program to “fix” a lack of motivation without personal responsibility, this won’t be the right place.
A Gentle but Important Note:
We are a Chinese learning academy, not medical professionals. While we share insights on how the brain and mind work and how to optimize learning, we do not specialize in neurological conditions like ADHD or provide medical interventions. Our expertise is in language mastery and effective learning strategies. If your child requires specialized support beyond language learning, we encourage you to seek the right professional assistance. If your child shows signs of cognitive learning differences, such as difficulty focusing or poor memory, or if these traits are already present, we kindly encourage you to be self-aware and seek professional support if needed. Providing the right assistance can help create a more effective and supportive learning experience for your child.
Here at our Chinese learning academy, students are to be responsible for their own learning. We are not a service-servant or service-client system—we foster a culture of mutual respect and growth. Honouring your precious child’s learning journey is the same as understanding how to honour others and their creations. Ethics matter. We uphold respect, integrity, and responsibility in life, in every learning relationship, shaping not just language skills but character.
If you are demanding / rude, we’re sorry, but this isn’t the right place for you. We work best with adults and families who trust the process, communicate with mutual respect, and embrace growth.
We’re here for students who are ready to grow, take charge, and enjoy the journey.
If that’s you, let’s make Mandarin an adventure!
Thank You 谢谢 ありがとうございます
The Power of Chinese Proficiency for University Admissions, Career Prospects and Competitive Edge In The Global Economy
1. Strong Cognitive and Analytical Skills
Being proficient in both languages shows that a student can think critically across different linguistic and cultural contexts. Research suggests that bilingual individuals often have better problem-solving and adaptability skills.
2. Competitive Edge for International and Business Programs
-
Universities, especially in fields like business, international relations, law, and linguistics, see bilingual students as assets.
-
Schools like Harvard, Stanford, Oxford, and top Asian universities recognize that Chinese is a major global language and that bilingualism gives students an edge in global careers.
3. Cultural and Global Awareness
Students who are proficient in both English and Chinese often have a broader worldview, which aligns with what universities look for in well-rounded applicants.
4. Access to More Research & Academic Resources
Being bilingual allows students to access research, literature, and academic materials in both languages, which is valuable for fields like history, philosophy, and global studies.
5. Career and Networking Advantages
Universities know that bilingual graduates have better job prospects, particularly in finance, diplomacy, and multinational corporations, as China is a major player in the global economy.
Proficiency in both English and Chinese makes a student more competitive for top universities, especially if it’s complemented by strong extracurriculars, leadership roles, and academic achievements.

FAQ
I am keen to enroll my child for MOE Chinese ; however, my child is currently attending an international/private school. Will their Chinese learning still be aligned with your curriculum?
Answer : If your child is currently in the IB curriculum, we understand that their exposure to Chinese might differ, especially if Chinese is not part of the IB program at their school.
