Saying how they feel
Children learn to tell a teacher or doctor what is wrong, and to ask a friend.
我肚子疼。 I have a stomachache.
你怎么了？ What’s wrong?

Questions
Before you join
What age is this for?
Usually ages 8–12, but level matters more than age. If you’re unsure, watch a sample YCT lesson together first.
Does a parent need to sit with my child?
Younger children do best with a parent nearby for the first few classes, mainly to help with the device. After that most can join on their own.
What is the YCT?
The Youth Chinese Test, the official Chinese exam for school-age learners, run by Chinese Testing International (chinesetest.cn). Classes follow its levels, and taking the exam is optional.
Can’t make the live time?
Every class is recorded. The replay appears in the portal after class, so your child can catch up and join live when possible.
What do I need?
A phone, tablet or computer with a stable connection. Headphones with a microphone help with speaking practice.
How do I cancel?
Email [email protected] from the email you signed up with and we’ll stop the renewal. Access continues until the end of the month you’ve paid for.
