About Gao Chinese Culture Academy
Helping children growing up in English-speaking environments learn Chinese naturally through language, culture, and hands-on experiences.
Our Approach
At Gao Chinese Culture Academy, we create an enriching environment where children can explore and appreciate the depth of Chinese language and culture. Through interactive, hands-on experiences, students build a strong foundation in Chinese while developing a genuine love for learning.
Our teaching approach is:
-
Student-centered and interactive
-
Age-appropriate and level-based
-
Focused on communication, not memorization
-
Designed to encourage creativity, curiosity, and confidence
Our programs blend language with art, traditional Chinese instruments, drama, food, and other cultural experiences, helping students learn in a natural, engaging, and meaningful way.

About Our Founder
I’m Jenny Gao, founder of Gao Chinese Culture Academy. I bring over 30 years of experience in education and Chinese language teaching. I design fun, engaging, and meaningful learning experiences that blend language with art, traditional Chinese instruments, drama, and food.
My goal is simple: to help children enjoy learning Chinese and experience the joy of Chinese culture in a natural, inspiring, and confidence-building way. Our programs also encourage students to develop a global mindset and appreciate cultural diversity.
When I’m not teaching, I enjoy reading, gardening, hiking, and taking motorcycle trips with my husband.
