By instruction language
Camps where the classroom runs in Mandarin. This page splits into two groups that look similar and could not be more different: programs built FOR language learners where zero Chinese is fine, and local camps where your kid needs real comprehension to keep up and make friends.
These programs exist to teach Mandarin. Placement levels start at absolute beginner, staff handle English, and a kid who arrives with nothing leaves with something.
These are local camps that happen to run in Chinese. For a fluent or heritage-fluent kid they double as immersion, a coding camp in Mandarin teaches two things at once. For a kid without the language, the week gets lonely fast. Be honest about your kid's actual level here, not the level you wish they had.
We track when every camp on this site opens registration. Drop your email and we'll ping you when new camps taught in mandarin opens for the next season, before the popular sessions fill.
One email when registration opens. That's it.
