ACE Afterschool offers a Chinese language immersive enrichment program that provides children with the opportunity to expand their language capability while building community in a small group setting.
The program is designed to support Cantonese or Mandarin language learners. For either track, participants can expect to focus on four aspects of learning the Chinese language: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. Each month, participants will be given a goal of a certain amount of Chinese language to master. Chinese is taught both through daily lessons and incorporated into the program through various enrichment and recreation activities.
