Teacher Chai's Chinese Academy has been a wonderful after school activity for my son. He looks forward to Chinese Club each week and is always excited to share what he learned.

Last year, I enjoyed learning some basic Chinese alongside Indira. This year the takeaway seems to be more cultural for her. Personally, I found her retell of the Chinese Zodiac and the reasoning behind the moonpie art quite fascinating! I can't wait to hear more when I pick her up in the coming weeks!

Robbie has had a passion for Panda Bears. He has always understood Pandas come from China and has been interested in the culture. This year during parent teacher night, a Panda Bear costume caught his eye. It was advertising Chinese as an after-school activity at Rockland Woods Elementary. After talking to the teacher, he jumped at the chance to learn. He enjoys each session and coming home and sharing with us.

We are very appreciative that Teacher Chai offers Mandarin Chinese language program at my children's school. We speak Cantonese at home. I've tried to teach my children Mandarin Chinese by myself before but it never worked. I don’t have the right pedagogical approach, and so my children didn’t have interest at all. When I knew Mandarin Chinese is offered at the school I immediately enrolled them. As expected, my children now have interest to learn. Teacher Chai's approach really makes a difference. Thank you Teacher Chai for your hard work! I hope my children keep learning.

Chai Laoshi is a fantastic teacher and incorporates a lot of real life situations into her teaching, making learning Chinese engaging and fun. The course is structured well and new material always builds off old material. She includes plenty of reviews in her classes and tailors the class to your needs, and truly wants the best for you. I couldn't recommend this class enough for Chinese learners!

I have been learning Chinese in Chai’s class for five years starting from nearly zero Chinese knowledge to being able to have fluent conversations, read and write. Donglin Chai is an amazing teacher who makes every concept easy to understand. Her lessons are very well prepared to suit your needs and easy to follow. In my opinion, Chai’s classes are the best way to learn Chinese and I highly recommend it!

Donglin Chai’s class is a great and fun class, you can learn at your own pace and I love that she recaps previous lesson with current ones which helps with remembering what has already been taught. I would recommend this class to others who are planning on learning Chinese.

Chai laoshi gave me step-by-step on how to learn Chinese through clear, concise, and compelling lessons. The MCA has a formula for achieving success in Chinese language thanks to their fresh and innovative teaching techniques. I highly recommend MCA for all your Chinese learning needs.

The MCA class I took was great. The class was well planned out and the way it was structured really reinforced the vocabulary and sentence structures. Chai Laoshi is also an amazing and dedicated teacher. Her teaching techniques and detailed oriented teaching style really help when learning Chinese.
