★★★★★krystal cuiI have two kids, aged 7 and 4. We signed them up for the Chinese summer camp just hoping for a meaningful experience, but it turned out to be way more! Besides learning Chinese, they joined fun activities like crafts, singing, and dancing. But what truly excited them was the Happy Wednesday School Trip! They had a picnic and a Chinese treasure hunt outdoors, and came back saying, 'When can we do it again?' It was both fun and educational—can’t ask for more!
★★★★★Musitafa FanhaijiMy son and daughter, aged 9 and 5, joined the Chinese summer camp, and the change in them was huge! They went from being uninterested to actively reviewing what they learned each day. Through hands-on crafts and traditional games, they picked up Chinese naturally. The most exciting part? The Happy Wednesday School Trips! The kids said it was 'the best day of their lives!' They practiced Chinese while playing outdoor games and came home buzzing with stories. Absolutely wonderful!
★★★★★班全红I have two children who joined this Chinese summer camp. At first, we just wanted them to have a fulfilling experience during the break, but they ended up learning so much! Not only Chinese, but also dancing and theater. Their favorite part was making birthday cards in Chinese—they even wrote their own wishes! I couldn't believe it! My older one is 8 and my younger is 5. Watching them learn with such joy makes me so proud. Plus, with different weekly themes, we could easily plan around our family activities or travels.
★★★★★Zhe Cui1. Last summer, both of my kids joined the Growing Trees Chinese Summer Camp, and it was such a joyful experience! They not only learned Chinese but also made tons of fun crafts and played games. My little one loved the hands-on Chinese projects, and my daughter would come home every day teaching me new Chinese words—soon our whole family was learning together! The funniest part? The house is now full of people saying “谢谢老师!”all day long. My daughter is 10 and my son is 5, and their progress amazed me! The camp also offers flexible schedules and themed sessions, which made it so easy for us to fit in a family trip without missing any learning!
★★★★★RebeccaI LOVE this place. The staff are friendly and fantastic with the kids. The teachers are kind, enthusiastic, and they keep control of the classroom in a positive way. The class sizes are small so the teacher is able to really work with each student. My daughter loves this program. All the kids bounce out of the classroom at the end and I can tell they've had a great time. They do alot of games and things to keep the kids engaged and having fun. Its given my daughter confidence in herself and a love of learning a new language. Highly recommend.
