Peking Express | since 1984 — Languages

I recently took my 6-year-old to Peking Express in Toronto for their language program. The instructors, particularly a lady named Mei, were very engaging and made the experience enjoyable for the kids. My child was shy at first but quickly warmed up, especially when they started playing language games that involved building simple sentences with colorful blocks. The small group size allowed for more personal attention, which I appreciated. One downside was the long lines when we arrived, making pickup a bit chaotic. However, once we got in, the environment was welcoming and the communication from the staff was clear. I would recommend this program to other parents, just be prepared for some waiting time at the start.

I took my 6-year-old to the Peking Express language program in Toronto, and overall, it was a worthwhile experience. The staff, especially Jenna, were engaging and made the environment welcoming for the kids. My child was initially shy but warmed up quickly, especially during the interactive storytelling sessions where they got to act out parts of traditional Chinese tales. The small group size really helped with individualized attention, which I appreciated. One minor annoyance was the pickup process; it was a bit chaotic as there were so many parents arriving at once. I recommend arriving a little earlier to find parking and avoid the crowd. While my child enjoyed the snacks provided (they particularly loved the dumplings!), the space felt a bit cramped at times, especially during busier days. But overall, I would recommend this program for its engaging activities and supportive staff.
