Newsflash
After the first class, I found that it was so much fun to challenge myself with some sounds that I had never made. I made it, and I found learning Chinese is not as hard as I expected. I enjoy the class and I am always looking forward to my next lesson. Frank, NYC

We teach Mandarin rather than Cantonese.

Mandarin is spoken by majority of the Chinese population.  It's the official and standard language of China and Taiwan.  Mandarin is much easier to learn and understand.

Cantonese is a dialect spoken by local people in Hong Kong and Canton Province. Cantonese speakers usually understand and speak (with accent) Mandarin. With the development of Chinese economy, it is a trend that Cantonese speakers are learning Mandarin. Mandarin is becoming an international language and is now widely taught in US and other Asian countries.
