Big Ideas, Real Impact.

Every event we host is designed with intention, from the atmosphere we create to the way each session flows.

How long is each course & what’s work-load like?

Each course runs over 14 weeks with 12 teaching weeks and the last two weeks for revision and examination.

You will meet the teacher one-hour a week, and required to self-study and group-study with peers for a total of 4 hours each week. This is the minimum requirement for successful progression and achieving the learning outcomes of the course at the end of the course. As a sample, displayed on left is the the schedule of Course 101 Beginner Mandarin.

However, while the standard schedule is 14 weeks, self-pace study is also an option. For self-pace study, 20-26 weeks is recommended.

Follow us on YouTube

You will find full range of lesson-demo videos corresponding to each course.

Each video is fun to watch on its own.

Every lesson/video is designed with specific learning goals, orientated and carefully stair-cased towards achieving the learning outcomes of the course.
