Primary Chinese Classes
Our focus is refining students' speaking, listening, and essay writing abilities, complemented by an additional component of reading comprehension (MCQ) to support holistic development.
We have meticulously designed and written our teaching materials, including exercises in writing and dialogue. These activities are aimed at enhancing students' mastery of the Chinese language. The advantage of creating our learning materials is the ability to tailor them to each child's needs—providing a challenging level for some students while ensuring accessibility for others.
Through activities such as completing short text fill-in-the-blanks, dialogue completion, and practical exercises centered on reading and comprehension, students undergo intensive training. This approach enhances their reading and comprehension skills, preparing them thoroughly for examinations.
