Preserve the heritage of Traditional Chinese!

Start your adventure

Chinese is the language with most users in the world. With the rise of China, Chinese has earned its place in one of the top choices when comes to learning a foreign lan-guage.

Usually, people assume simplified Chinese would be easier to start with, but tradition-al Chinese is your access to genuine Chinese culture. If you understand traditional Chi-nese, then you would have no problem recognizing most of the characters in simplified Chinese. It’s a win win!

Taiwan has a better living quality compare to China. You can feel the warmth through helping hands from people on the streets, finding the footprints left by different coun-tries in Taiwan, and explore the beauty and its charm combined with Chinese culture.

I like Tamkang because The students are here not just to make friends, but to really study Chinese with a purpose. I also like my lao shi because she answers all the questions and really make us understand the lesson through everyday practice. I also like the class size (of 12 students) because it’s not too many or too few. I have made good friends with my classmates since the first day of Chinese class which make learning Chinese really fun.
