The intense and the interacting education make the students learning Chinese in a much more interesting and efficient way.
Xilin’s Mathematics class in after school is another success example.

The students are trained on to take the challengers and thinking independently. Many students in Xilin’s Math classes were nominated in State and National wide Math competitions.
