Why Learn Chinese?
In the first few weeks of school, there will be opportunities to promote your Chinese program. Many parents ask “Why should my child learn Chinese?” Use the very simple flyer below to explain the benefits to learning Chinese.
As parents, you want your child to have every opportunity for success. One powerful gift you can give them is the ability to speak another language. Learning Chinese (Mandarin) is not only fun for children, but it also opens doors for their future.
1. A Global Language
Chinese is the most spoken language in the world! Over 1.4 billion people use it every day. When children learn Chinese, they can connect with more people across the globe.
2. Brain Power Boost
Studies show that learning another language improves memory, problem-solving, and creativity. Chinese especially trains the brain because it uses tones, characters, and patterns that are different from English.
3. Future Opportunities
China plays a big role in business, technology, and culture. Knowing Chinese gives students an advantage in careers, travel, and international friendships.
4. Culture and Connection
Through language, children discover Chinese stories, traditions, food, and celebrations. They don’t just learn words—they experience another culture.
5. Confidence and Communication
When children learn to speak, read, and write in Chinese, they feel proud of themselves. It builds confidence and shows them that they can achieve big goals.
