Dublin Confucius Class for Children
In 2016, UCD Confucius Institute and AihuaChinese School joined hands to launch a flagship Chinese learning program called Dublin Confucius Classroom for Children which has grown into a large, professional centre for Chinese language and culture learning in Ireland. It provides a wide range of educational and fun Chinese courses all year long.
Our specially designed curriculum focuses on teaching Mandarin, Pinyin (i.e., Chinese phonics) and Hanzi(i.e., Chinese characters) by enhancing students’ listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Various aspects of the Chinese culture are also incorporated throughout the courses.
Dublin Confucius Class for Children boasts highly qualified Chinese teachers and excellent teaching facilities. Children are grouped according to their ages and language levels, and the learning process is packed with interactive activities with fun learning materials such as drawing, stories, nursery rhymes, poems and games. Young students will be able to progress in a motivated and enjoyable environment.
