- we launched the new program Spring into Chinese in Novato;
- we moved to the new location to better serve you;
- we expended to San Rafael;
- we offered homework help for Mandarin level 1 thru level 4 students who need extra help, or simply need extra time spent in a Chinese speaking environment;
- our Mandarin Chinese Level 2 thru Level 7 students participated on the Chinese Proficiency Test;
- the mobile weLearn program continues to grow healthily. With the passion of bringing the Chinese language and culture to students in the community,
o weLearn has gladly accepted Montessori de Terra Linda’s offer to deliver Mandarin Chinese class as one of the after-school enrichment classes. The first session went very well.
o We are also working with other schools in Santa Rosa and Marin County.
o More and more educators and parents agree to expend children’s culture awareness by learning a new language
As you continue to see weLearn grow, one thing remains the same: our goal to inspire a love of learning in every student.
Happy Holidays!

We would like to extend the warmest welcome to our new students! All continuing Mandarin classes and Math class students, welcome back!
What’s New?
2011 fall semester is off to a good start
Conversational Chinese classes are learning and practicing commonly-used expressions about greetings, introduction, etc. while they are having fun with kid songs. All levels of Mandarin Chinese classes are getting on track. Other than learning what’s in the textbook, students are also receiving training for the standardized exams. We promote learning through testing.
It’s time for Chinese proficiency test
Mandarin Chinese Level 7 class has taken the HSK3 test. Tests for students from Level 2 through Level 6 will take place shortly. If any former student is interested in taking this exam, please contact us ASAP.
About Chinese Proficiency Test
The HSK (汉语水平考试) is an international standardized exam that tests and rates Chinese language proficiency. It accesses non-native speakers’ (foreigners, overseas Chinese and students of Chinese national minorities) abilities in using the Chinese language in their daily, academic and professional lives.
The YCT (Youth Chinese Test) was launched in an effort to encourage foreign young students to learn Chinese and improve their Chinese language proficiency. It’s a benchmark for students who want to participate in the HSK test.
Important Dates
10/10/11 Columbus Day – weLearn will be opened as usual.
10/31/11 Halloween – Have a fun and safe one!
