Silicon Valley Chinese School established the Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning. The program is based on the whole language method, a learner-centered teaching philosophy. Our principle is to provide a supportive environment and create meaningful interaction, which makes the language learning easy. Learning Mandarin is easy when it is real and natural, whole, sensible, interesting, relevant; when learners can relate to it, when it is a part of a real event, when it has social utility, and when it has purpose for the learner.
Classes at the Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning – Silicon Valley Chinese School are divided into 9 levels, from beginner’s level to advanced level. International Competitiveness: English and Mandarin+ Digital Collaboration.
New students, excepts beginner class students, will take a placement test before school begins for us to assign them to the class that best suits their levels. All classes are taught in Mandarin/English and use Pinyin for pronunciation. We emphasize all four language skills, listening, speaking, reading, and writing/typing.
Students will not only develop their ability to listen, speak, read, write using Mandarin, but they will have an opportunity to learn beyond the language, enriching their understanding of Taiwanese culture and customs.
