ABOUT US

From Frustration to Action

We are four parents – Jessica, Kelly, Maggie and Ruth.  

 

We come from different parts of the world and from different cultures

but one thing we all have in common is that

we want our children to learn Chinese. 

 

Our children have studied Chinese in all corners of the Hong Kong education system;  

from kindergarten to secondary school, in Cantonese or Mandarin immersion

and in local to international school settings. 

 

We have watched our children learning Chinese and

wanted to find creative and effective ways to support their language study. 

 

We understand that learning Chinese is challenging, especially when there is limited support at home. Over the years we have found some useful resources and strategies

for studying Chinese and would like to share these with other families.

 

We hope to support students and families on their Chinese learning journey.

We also hope to facilitate learning Chinese as an additional language and make it more accessible for anyone who is interested.
