Programs for Children

Registering September classes for children now!

New school year starts on Saturday, Sept. 11th

We love teaching and encourage every child to learn the Chinese language. Toronto Mandarin School has developed a unique and very effective method and teaching materials to engage children of all age groups and diverse cultural backgrounds. We teach Putonghua, Simplified Characters and Pinyin, using the language system of Mainland China. All our teachers are certified, native–speaking Mandarin teachers and many of them have training in teaching Chinese as a second language.

We are different:

  • We specialize and are expert in teaching Mandarin Chinese language
  • The curriculum is adapted to a western context and focused on practical usage
  • The staff is well trained and experienced in working with children of diverse backgrounds
  • The learning materials are customized to meet our students’ needs
  • The teaching method is lively, interactive, and fun
  • Each class is small with a maximum of 16 students
  • Learning is supported by purposely designed homework and reading program
  • Parents are encouraged to be actively involved in their children’s learning
  • The school is very professionally managed

Which program should I choose for my child?

Whichever program you choose, Toronto Mandarin School is your best choice for learning Mandarin.

My four years old can sing many Chinese songs! It is quite impressive though we do not understand. We started her at 3 yrs old for the Early Years Learning in Mandarin program at Toronto Mandarin School and she loves her Chinese teacher from day one. Children in the class will sing along with movement, listening to stories and making crafts, it is quite fun. I likes the booklet called “Sing along, learn Mandarin” children can learn simple phrases and sentences and we can listen to the CD at home or when we drive. I even picked up some words. Learning Mandarin is definitely a long-term plan for my daughter.
