Chinese immersion level 1-7
Immersion is the best way for children to absorb language skills at a very early age. Chinese-Mandarin course at OHCS are specially designed for children living in non-Mandarin speaking families. It features a spiral-up lesson structure that builds upon and applies previous material, so children can learn Chinese naturally–the way they would in a native environment.

Students can review what they learned in the classroom and play additional exercises by watching each lesson at home on the computer with the CD-ROM, making learning Chinese relevant and fun!
