A Pathway to Proficient Bilingualism

A Pathway to Proficient Bilingualism

ÁñÁ«ÊÓÆÁ is committed to offering a truly immersive & fully integrated bilingual programme designed to cultivate proficient bilingual, bi-literate, and bi-cultural individuals. 

Our Bilingual Program from Grade 1 to Grade 5 offers the same rigorous academic content as mainstream classes while immersing students in English and Mandarin. Through our innovative teaching models, students develop proficiency, confidence, and cultural understanding in both languages.

In Grade 1, students follow a one-teacher model, providing a smooth introduction to bilingual learning. From Grade 2 to Grade 5, the two-teacher model pairs native English- and Mandarin-speaking educators to co-teach core subjects like Math, STEMinn (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math & Innovation), Inquiry, and Social-Emotional Learning. Meanwhile, English Language Arts and Mandarin Language Arts are taught exclusively by teachers in their native language, deepening students’ linguistic and cultural understanding. 

Students spend 50% of their time in English and 50% in Mandarin, fostering fluency in both languages. Additional subjects, such as music, drama, art, and physical education, are taught in English, providing a well-rounded experience.

Innovative Two-Teacher Model

The cornerstone of our Bilingual Program is the innovative two-teacher model, which begins in Grade 2. This collaborative approach ensures core subjects are co-taught by dedicated native Mandarin and English speakers, providing a seamless integration of language and content. 

In Grade 1, students benefit from a one-teacher model, which provides a strong foundation and smooth introduction to bilingual learning before transitioning to the two-teacher approach.

Curriculum in Harmony

Both languages come alive as we explore and understand subjects such as:

– Math

– STEMinn (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math & Innovation)

– Inquiry-based learning

– Second Step social-emotional skills

This balanced curriculum nurtures intellectual growth, cultural awareness, and bilingual proficiency across disciplines.

Balancing Language Exposure

Our Bilingual Program is designed around a 50-50 English/Mandarin dual-immersion model. This carefully considered balance ensures that students spend approximately 50% of their time fully immersed in Mandarin, with the remaining 50% conducted in English.
