Afternoon and weekend activities

i. Cultural lessons
Home to one of the world's oldest and most complex civilizations, China boasts a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic, philosophical, and political advancement. We believe that students of the Chinese language should be familiarized with the Chinese culture in its past traditions and present representations. Every Monday and Friday afternoon you will have the chance to enjoy the art of Chinese calligraphy, learn the secrets of Chinese cuisine, try your hand at Chinese paper cutting, Chinese paintings. Chinese movies etc.
