Youtube videos are an awesome way to get students engaged in world language content. There are some great YouTube channels out there for kids learning Mandarin.

My students love these catchy songs and funny animations. I will hear them humming the songs while they work and in the hallway.

The fun animations and quirky lyrics get students moving.

Kind of hokey but kids think they are hilarious.

Who can pass up on Baby Shark in Mandarin?

Originally from Washington D.C., I moved to Hong Kong when I was 19 to work for a charity in the Philippines. After one year in Asia I had fallen in love with the Chinese language and culture. I lived in Greater China for another 6 years in places like Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. While in Asia, I worked in education, non-profit, and finance. I double majored in Economics and Chinese with a minor in Asia Studies at St. Mary’s College of Maryland. Most recently I received my masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Concordia University. I love creating fun and engaging Mandarin lessons for students especially in elementary.
