TongLe Chinese Courses: The Best Chinese Learning System for Overseas Chinese Children

Rooted in Seattle, USA, TongLe Chinese School integrates 20+ years of overseas Chinese education experience to create the most suitable "Natural Language Learning Method" for Chinese children. We innovatively develop New Generation Chinese Textbooks and Learning Tools, comprehensively covering from enlightenment to AP/HSK9, with knowledge spanning literature, history, philosophy, and science, enabling students to grow comprehensively in listening, speaking, reading, and writing, and fall in love with Chinese. At the same time, in the AI era, we accurately answer key questions such as "Should we still learn Chinese?" "What to learn and how to learn?". TongLe Education Planning focuses on the entire life journey of individuals, striving to comprehensively improve children's life and physical and mental state.
