Ravens Mandarin

Mandarin Program overview

The Mandarin program at Ravenscroft is very vibrant and full of joy! Students participate the class activities in a hybrid setting during the pandemic, which help them continue to strive and enhance their language proficiency. This website will be updated with their presentations, art work, and portfolios as we continue to grow stronger. Feel free to contact the Mandarin teacher, Mrs. Liu, at yi-wen.liu@ravenscroft should you have any questions about our classes! Follow us on Instagram at ravensmandarin!
