” The Students Teaching Students ® program is such a creative way for students to learn a new language. My seven year old, Annie, is having so much fun studying with her Chinese tutor that she doesn’t even realize how much she is learning!

I highly recommend this program to students of all ages. It’s exciting to have the world open up to you through the wonderful tutors who are teaching you their own language halfway across the globe. And, to have the opportunity to learn in the comfort of your home when it is convenient for you and your family is an added plus!”

“There was a recent article in the New York Times about the demand Chinese firms have for finding talented executives from the U.S. in the financial services industry. (www.nytimes.com). It validates your business model even more. I definitely think you are on to something.

“I am so pleased to be a part of the pilot group. I have found the classes to be fun and informative. My tutor is very patient and thorough. I look forward to each class!”

“My kids are American born Chinese/Vietnamese learning Chinese as a second language. I think the one-on-one sessions are very effective for my children because the lessons are tailored to their individual needs and allow them to progress at their own speed.

My children also enjoy the casual atmosphere of having their lessons in the comfort of their own home. They are able to speak up more and experiment with new material with less hesitation. Their tutor from Students Teaching Students® is a young adult who the children look up to and have fun conversing with throughout their lesson. In addition, the one-on-one teaching format definitely helps speed up their learning process.”

“This learning system works well for my daughter, who is on the quiet, shy side. She has one-on-one lessons with someone who understands how to teach children. This method allows her to learn Chinese at her own pace, in our home with a person in China who is fluent in both Chinese and English. It’s an exciting program. Without a doubt, my daughter seems to really enjoy her lessons!”

What Experts are Saying About Learning Chinese

“The Chinese language is extremely hot! Chinese is a language that people in states as diverse as Kansas and Kentucky now want to speak. Parents and people in the school business are beginning to see China as a big opportunity. Where on earth, literally, are we going to find the high-quality teachers that we need to fulfill the demand?”

“I have been waiting for this for 20 years, and I was always hopeful that finally one day the United States would wake up to the fact that we really need to expand language offerings in our schools.”
