characters, and the students who are over 6-year-old learn Chinese

Mandarin Course
There are five different levels of Mandarin courses at our
school. From Beginner to Intermediate classes, teachers teach
students both in English and Chinese. In Upper-Intermediate and
Advanced classes, teachers teach mainly in Chinese. The textbooks
are a series of books named ZHONGWEN, which is edited for those
Chinese learners who are living abroad.
