One parent, Carla Ng, reports that her children have been attending Everyday Mandarin since kindergarten and that they enjoy being in the program and learning about their culture and language, and she notes that Ms. Wu and the staff teach Mandarin in a positive way. Another parent, Erine Budi, reports that her child enjoyed the summer camp, describes the teacher as patient and knowledgeable, and notes that her child started talking in Mandarin and teaching her Mandarin words, and that they received many pictures at the end of camp.
