Beginners' Mandarin for Children
Exciting opportunities for English-speakers (non-Chinese heritage speakers) at the Star Mandarin School
91直播 us
We are the Star Mandarin School, 91直播's premier weekend Chinese Learning Centre for children.
We are part of the University of 91直播 and we hold our classes in the beautiful, listed building of Bartolome House on the University campus every Saturday.
Opening over the weekends and following school term times, the Star Mandarin School provides Mandarin Chinese learning to school children, in addition to Mathematics and Arts tuition, consolidating their learning at school and reinforcing their study skills.
Why do we need to learn Mandarin Chinese?
- The Mandarin Chinese language is profoundly rooted in a rich history and culture. Words and phrases can be built up easily with logic and sentences can be constructed following strict routines. Learning Chinese is not as hard as you think!
- Language is a window to another world and has become an essential part of a global education. Every child should learn languages to broaden their horizons.
- Earlier exposure to Mandarin to utilise the children's natural ability to acquire languages and to develop native-like pronunciation and intonations.
- Mandarin is listed as one of the seven languages to learn at school. Learning a foreign language has been compulsory for Key Stage 2 children since 2014, and all secondary school children must learn a foreign language.
- While most schools do not have the capacity to provide Mandarin Chinese learning, the Star Mandarin School at the University of 91直播 readily provides these learning opportunities, from beginner levels through to GCSE Chinese and A-Level Chinese, to all school students, adding a unique language subject for school education.
- Give it a go and start your child's Mandarin Chinese adventure!
