                  St. Monica Mandarin Program

Mei Jia Chinese Learning Center is a multi-faceted Mandarin language and Chinese cultural learning center. We offer before and after school Mandarin programs, summer camp, and weekend programs for K-8th graders at different ages and levels. We maintain a very low teacher-to-student ratio so that each student will have individualized instruction. Many students in our program have passed the AP Chinese Exam, continued Mandarin as a language subject in college, and won many awards in Chinese calligraphy and poetry contests, such as the Chinese Bridge Cup Recital and Calligraphy Contests, and CLTAC (Chinese Language Teachers Association of California) Mandarin Speech Contests, etc
Here are some videos of Mandarin programs for your viewing.

Picture
​​Language is best learned through social interaction and meaningful activities. Our highly- trained, caring teachers provide an enriching environment and engaging curriculum that immerses the children in Chinese language and culture. Students will have academic Mandarin lessons as well as fun activities related to Chinese culture and history, such as Chinese calligraphy, art and crafts, etc. The students will acquire Mandarin language and literacy skills through songs, poems, chants and stories.

  Which class is right for me?
  • Intermediate – This class is for students who can understand conversational Mandarin, as the goal is for the teacher to be speaking Mandarin only. Students should either have exposure speaking Mandarin at home or have previously participated in a Mandarin-immersion program.
  • Beginning – This class is for students who have no or some prior exposure to Mandarin. The teacher will be speaking a combination of 80% Mandarin and 20% English.
     ** During the first week, we will observe your child in class and if a switch is necessary, we will  discuss with you                           switching your  child to a different level class.
Program Calendar:
   **Fall 2022 semester is from September-December.   NO class on half day and school holidays.
      Starting date: Sept. 12,     Last class Dec. 15
