The () is devoted to Chinese language teaching. Established in 1995,with the help from the Calvary Baptist Church at New Haven and through years of the volunteered efforts of parents and a group of dedicated, motivated teachers, the School has evolved from a small after-school class with one teacher and several students to a non-profit educational institution of a dozen teachers and of about 200 students.
The School is a Mandarin-speaking Chinese school where instructions are conducted in Mandarin with standard Chinese pronunciation, simplified characters, and the Chinese pinyin. The classes are open to students of six years or older who currently reside in New Haven area or will move to live in New Haven area. Our goals are to provide opportunity for students to learn Chinese language, to understand Chinese customs and culture, and to learn to appreciate their Chinese heritage. We focus on teaching Chinese language, creating an environment where students of Chinese decedents can get together on regular basis and practice the language. To maintain a balance between study and recreation, there are courses in Chinese language, arts and painting, music, and various cultural activities. The classes meet every Sunday afternoon from 1:00 to 4:00. The program provides courses at various levels, from first grade through eightth grade.
Elementary Level Students learn standard Chinese pronunciation and phonetic alphabet, strokes of Chinese Characters, rule and order of strokes, commonly used structural parts and radicals of Chinese characters and word components and structures. Students will develop basic skill to recognize Chinese characters and build certain amount of vocabulary and to learn to read with the aid of pictures or read simple childrens books.
Intermediate Level At this level, we put emphasis on reading proficiency that train students' ability to recognize Chinese charaters and increase their reading vocabulary. We also develop studentsabilities to understand and use different words and phrases,in fairly difficult sentences. Students will be able to do simple writing with the aid of pictures or by observing subjects.
Advanced Level At this level, students continue to develop basic skills of independent reading and writing in Chinese.
