Want to give your child a total Mandarin immersion and Chinese art experience without leaving the country? Come and join our Mandarin and Art Summer Camp conveniently located in San Francisco.
AAS Mandarin and Art Summer Camp is designed for children entering Kindergarten through 3rd grade. This program will give them a unique opportunity to learn and improve their language skills in Mandarin, while deepening their knowledge of Chinese culture and art through age appropriate play-based classes and activities in Mandarin.
The camp consists of 8 one-week sessions from June 7 to July 30. The basic program is from 9 am to 3 pm with an extended day option. The students participate in classes conducted in Mandarin that include such culturally rich activities as drawing, Chinese brush painting, playing the yaogu (the Chinese waist drum), Chinese folk songs and poetry, and many more. Field trips will be arranged for landscape drawing during the camp. All sessions, including the extended care, will be conducted in Mandarin.
Our Mandarin and Art Summer Camp is a small-sized camp with a maximum of 10 students. Each student will get personalized treatment, provided with love and care. Our goal for the program is to teach the children basic Mandarin communication skills while they are having fun with all kinds of hands-on activities and games.
