Our Facilities
A good learning environment must be supported by good learning facilities, in order to make the learning process more efficient and enjoyable. Students should be able to enjoy their learning sessions in order to develop their interests. To support this, lessons will make use of teaching facilities such as:
•
Audio Aid
As children grow, their first encounter with language is through their hearing senses. Acknowledging the effectiveness of this natural process, we adopt this approach and enhance our Mandarin introduction process through the use of CD players, iPods, and individual headsets for listening activities.

Visual Aid
Other than listening, one of the most effective ways of learning is through the help of our visual senses. To deal with children's natural difficulty in concentrating for a long period of time, various visual aids are needed to keep them entertained during in-class sessions. Therefore, we provide supporting visual aid equipment such as: colorful flash cards, interactive software, and movies.
