Language Workshop For Children

My son is attending the same Chinese class in Montclair NJ mention by Debbie M in her email sent on 12/​27/​2012 and is now having a wonderful experience. He is absorbing the language in a very fun and interactive environment.
The first few days were a bit difficult due to the physical bullying he experienced by Debbie M’s 4 year old son. I was impressed with the immediate action taken by the school in contacting this parent and looking to resolve the issue. The school requested that Debbie M. help eliminate this negative behavior by remaining present during the class and addressing her son’s behavior immediately. Unfortunately she was unwilling to help correct her son’s behavior and was therefore asked to remove her son from the class and provided a refund. As unpleasant as this initial situation was, I greatly appreciated the school’s determination to provide a healthy and constructive learning environment for all children. **It is an attribute that the Language Workshop For Children will NOT allow one child to ruin the experience for all children.
My son is now thriving in this class and is learning the basics of Mandarin through counting, sentence building, and level appropriate conversation. He is now beginning to associate Chinese with play and having fun which increases his eagerness to understand and speak the language. I would highly recommend this class to any parent looking to broaden their child’s language skills.

My children took Chinese in their Montclair NJ location. The first few weeks my 7 and 4 year old enjoyed it. However, it became the same thing week after week. With an 8 week session they learned one new word. The other words they reviewed in class they already learned in previous classes or on Nick Jr. My 4 year old son was not kept «in class» and was let to wonder on his own. The class became a very expensive one hour play date. VERY expensive for what they offer. Would not recommend
