The Bodhi Tree Language Center is a Chinese language school for adults and children. Mandarin Chinese is our specialty. Our teachers are Chinese, and therefore native speakers of the language they teach. Classes are kept small to increase your learning experience. But they are also alive, and fun, with much interaction and individual attention given to each student.

Chinese for Children: Language & Culture Preschool (ages 3-5) Starting January, 2007: Small classes, native language teachers. We keep the classes fun and the children engaged. Children will learn Chinese culture and language arts, simple mathematics, arts and crafts, singing and dancing, group games, story telling and listening skills all in Mandarin Chinese.
