From curriculum to courseware, there is a lot of preparation that goes into creating and updating each class.
We conduct an in-depth study of globally accredited curriculum content, learners’ profiles, and the latest education methodology.
Next, we break down the curriculum into bite-sized content to enhance each lesson’s effectiveness and to stimulate your child’s thinking process and learning needs.
All LingoAce classes incorporate games and interaction between learners and teachers. This helps capture your child’s attention while making the learning experience more engaging and motivating.
Our creative designers create illustrations to make each lesson more appealing and visually stimulating. This helps to bring learning Chinese to life for your child.
Our team of senior teachers will carefully evaluate, test, and tweak the curriculum. Following that, each curriculum goes through another round of refinement before being taught to your child.
An immersive environment
Children learn best in an immersive environment where they constantly hear and speak the language they are learning. At LingoAce, we provide an immersive online experience where teachers follow a rigorous curriculum so your child can build a strong foundation in Chinese.
Practice after class
Your child should practice Chinese as much as possible after class. Apart from speaking Chinese as much as possible, we encourage your child to do their homework. Our online interactive and offline homework are given and reviewed each lesson. Each homework is methodologically created to reinforce the retention of lesson concepts and difficult words. We also incorporate color psychology in our homework to keep our learners engaged.
Get in touch with the culture
Expose your child to the culture by watching Chinese TV programs or movies, or attending festivals in your local neighborhood. Some libraries in communities with a large Chinese population also hold events during Chinese holidays. Check out our blog post for some suggested reads
Aligned with globally accredited standards
Our curriculum is designed using global standards and benchmarks like the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Language (ACTFL), Youth Chinese Test (YCT), Chinese Proficiency Test (HSK), Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), China Ministry of Education, Singapore Ministry of Education, and 21st Century Skills.
Engaging and interactive design
We take a learner-first approach when designing our curriculum. Using vivid illustrations, interactive games, and engaging stories, we give learners the practice they need to learn Chinese.
Effective and high-quality curriculum
Our curriculum undergoes user-based testing and before launch so our curriculum is of the highest possible quality.
