FIVE SENSES LEARNING PROGRAMME
Developed by Joy Mandarin Academy
The Five Senses Learning Programme is a unique and special way to learn Mandarin.
Every child processes information differently, and this learning programme allows each child to use all their senses (sight, hearing, smell, kinaesthesia, tactility) to understand and process the target language, Mandarin.
​
By using the Five Senses Learning Programme, students can learn Mandarin easily, efficiently and apply it independently.
​
It also helps parents to assist students to do home-revision by knowing kids’ learning styles and use our professional materials.
