East Bay Chinese School

East Bay Chinese School is proud to partner with Piedmont Language School(PLS) in offering in-person Mandarin classes. The PLS Mandarin 2 class is for students who have either completed PLS Mandarin 1 or an equivalent Mandarin program.

Chinese Wonderland Book 2.

The tone of these classes is having fun with the language. The goal is to instill a love of learning Mandarin, an accent and an ear, while building upon what has been learned in Mandarin 1. 

Moving beyond what students learned about themselves in Level 1, in Level 2 students learn how to describe: 

• their grade
• Their school
• Their location
• parents’ jobs
• how they look
• what they are doing
• furniture and accessories and what room in the house they are located in

Classes are held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:20-4:20pm at Piedmont Middle School (classroom TBD). 

Instructional calendar will follow the Piedmont Unified School District calendar and its noted holidays and non-instruction days. 

No classes will be held the week of Thanksgiving, Winter Break (12/19/25 - 1/12/26), President's Week, and Spring Break.

No classes will be held on when the elementary schools have minimum days for Open House and Back to School Night.
