Abacus Class

- age 5 and older

Learning Abacus can be the key to establish the concept of number and help math learning starting at a young age. Abacus provides countable beads for students to visualize numbers on a base-10 system. Consequently, students develop an abacus image to perform mental calculations.

It is an excellent opportunity to learn abacus skills during summer.

Math Class

- For Grades 1 and up

Students will be exposed with different types of math problems and be taught with multiple approaches step-by-step that lead students to a better ability to solve problems. Critical thinking and problem solving skills are the focus of the program. The Math classes are for 2nd grade and up. Students will learn to find a pattern, sketch a diagram, make a list or a table, working backward, and use reasoning to solve problems. Math is a challenging subject that can be made really fun!

Math class helps students to review and/or to learn new math concepts during summer.

Beginning Chinese Class

- age 5 and older

There are different topics on each weekly lesson. Students will be able to speak and sing Chinese songs. Students will also learn to write Chinese characters, learning about Chinese radicals, basic strokes, stroke order and meaning.

Chinese Class
