“My twins both enjoyed the immersive Beijing summer and winter camps. Ms. Zhang and her team did a great job applying Chinese learning to Chinese culture exploration. After attending 7-8 Chinese summer camps in the Bay Area and China, I feel that this camp is one-of-a-kind, including yet not limited to 1) a truly immersive and hands-on experience, my twins like the traditional Chinese outfits from the camp and wear them in daily life; they learned to identify herbs in teas and medicines, write their Chinese names and make Christmas ornaments with these herbs; 2) broad coverage of diverse aspects of Chinese culture, from building wood lanterns with mortise and tenon joints to trying lion dance, which suitable for different ages and Chinese proficiency levels 3) Memorable field trips to Chinatown and local museums, where my kids requested to revisit 4) Seasonal newsletters about Chinese holidays and traditions with age-appropriate activities throughout the year.

“I've been subscribed their email list for a long time and the owner has been always very responsive to my questions. When the winter camp opened and schedule fitted great, we jumped right in. It's awesome! they offered a lot of hands-on activities, invited specialties to demonstrate traditional practices and performances, cooked traditional food with kids (yum!), field trip to museums in school bus (safety!). Everyday my kids excitedly showed me what they learned today. And everyday they didn't want to leave the campus. Definitely will come back again if location/schedule fit us. Highly recommend!”

"Our son had the most wonderful experience at the Immersive Beijing Learning Foundation week long summer camp program. Each day was thoughtfully designed, and it has inspired our son's interest in learning Mandarin as well as learning more about Chinese culture. The Program Director, Sherry Lao Shi, and the entire teaching team were incredibly loving and nurturing. The program has left such a positive impression on my son that he's asked to return to this camp next summer."

"My 5 years old boy had a wonderful time! He loves the teachers ! The activities are lots of fun! They opened a window for my son to Chinese culture. It was the the first time he took a bus to Sam Francisco Chiba town. He was so happy and proud of himself!! We will certainly enroll this camp again!"

"With international travel becoming difficult during COVID, I feel fortunate that my twins have the local opportunity to experience authentic Chinese culture, make good friends, and learn to be bilingual counselors in the future.”

“Truly a magical place with wonderful, patient, kind, and loving teachers. Both my kids absolutely love this school and their Chinese teachers. Lessons are dynamic, practical, project-based, hands-on, and so much fun! I find myself 2 happy children every time at pick up, who skip to the car while telling me everything they'd learned that day in class. My kids have learned so much in such little time, all while having a blast!”
