In YCC, Learning Mandarin Chinese is a way to know the language of this country, have culture experience, enjoy Literature Immersion, know China Flavor and etc. We are not only a school to teach the words, sentences and tons, we are a school to guide you experience China, speak local language and become a “Chinese” during your stay in China. 

----Language Study 

In YCC, besides delivering the knowledge and skills of Chinese to students, it is our aim to inspire and motivate our students to learn the language. We believe most efficient language learning happens through students’ own engagement and self-effort.

When we teach, we often use visual aids, such as software tools or videos and make students feel that learning Mandarin is interesting. We also make a lot of effort to interact with our students throughout the learning process, e.g. to design conversation on various topics of daily life and the rotation of the roles of reading, composition writing,  feedback and so on. The one of most important principles of our teaching philosophy is to cultivate our students' communicative abilities and to teach them to use the Chinese language in real life.

----Culture experience

Language is the carrier of culture, culture and language cannot be separated from each other.

The Chinese culture has 5,000 years of history and is one of the world's oldest cultures. During our classes in YCC, we teach students traditional Chinese culture every Friday’s classes. E.g. calligraphy（书法),   Beijing opera（京剧),   Chinese painting (国画),   Chinese chess (象棋)， Wei Qi（围棋)，the Chinese Zodiac (生肖)，the Lunar calendar（农历), And lots more. 

--- know China Flavor

We have two campus in China, one is in Shanghai and the other one is in Hangzhou. For most of the students, after studying, they want to work and live in China. Every month, we will have daily life lessons in our school. For example, daily shopping, interview skills, using public transport, order dishes in restaurants, even recommend some job interviews to students who need it.
