1 Staff Member To 6 Students

Safety is the most important issue to children, so six students will have one staff member to take care of their life and observe their learning problems in the course. Thus, the staff members assist students to improve together.

Coming into LifeLanguage leaning not only lies in the classroom, but also lies in interaction and communication with other local people. Then, children can grow from playing. Following their new friends from different places, they get together to enjoy learning Chinese and bravely make contact with new cultures. Therefore, they re-open their passion for leaning Chinese!

Diverse Abilities

We believe that through all the Chinese lessons and mission activities, it foster students’ abilities of organization, leadership communication, and to have a open mind to experience different cultures.

Travel to Learn

By traveling half-way around the island, children will feel no stress when using their three hundred vocabularies and sixty grammar patterns. Thus, the children’s conversations are not restricted to classroom lessons so that they can interact with local people in real life.

Immediate Learning & Using

The activity mission aims to encourage children coming into life. Children immediately use contents to talk with local people. While children use skills immediately, they will get real feedback.

✓ Going beyond Language Learning

✓ Thinking Out of the Textbook

✓ Applying Learning Language

✓ Coming into Life

✓ Earning Real Feedback

Children cultivate their five senses to record their moods and write down their thoughts about everything. Children also can use technologies to produce an exclusive memorial book by using iBuild to record their adventure journeys and sweet memories.

App Memorial book

We believe that all courses must assist students in preparation of interaction with Chinese native speakers. The courses and mission activities need to be relevant to day-to-day life; The primary goal is to improve Chinese-speaking skills and help students in communicating clearly with confidence.

Children use ingredients and kitchenware to experience and learn language in a professional and safe cooking space. We hold a competition with a time limit to stimulate children to ask the assistance of passersby in the supermarket, and request them to help the children to purchase the correct ingredients. After the competition, children will return to cook the food in the classroom and share their thoughts.

The Secret Chamber GameWe specifically arrange a laser gun competition to promote children’s friendship and sense of unity. The Living Mall simulates a war in a Middle Eastern city, and by using realistic story plots of ten types of exciting and various mission contents, the children complete the realistic mission with the help of the coach’s instruction.

Hereby introduce you 10 special mission activities which arrange after Chinese courses to encourage students to use the vocabulary and sentence patterns they have been learning in a real life.

Ordering Drinks

Taiwan has various beverage stores. Just tea alone has dozens of choices, and children can follow their own taste to adjust the amount of ice and sugar. After children learn the basic vocabularies in the morning class, they can go to a real beverage store to order their exclusive drink.

Half-day Manager

We encourage students to challenge themselves while learning. Through the activity of half-day manager, children can face different customers, deal with customers’ problems and can bravely solve different situations.

Course Features

Children use their imagination to play the role of a storyteller and follow the picture cards to say the correlated words, such as a vocabulary, a sentence or making a sound. Therefore, playing this game can let children develop their imagination, use Chinese and exercise their wits to win the game.

We hope children will not forget their original intentions. Hence, children have to write their anticipations about the future and go to the post office to send the future letter. After one year, the future letter will return to the children at unexpected time; this letter may urge them to make progress to complete their dream.
