“Globally speaking, we understand that mandarin is the language of the future. As parents of two adopted Chinese daughters we believe it is imperative our children learn the language of their native land as well as the language of the future -- mandarin.
We are grateful to the Evergreen Chinese Academy (ECA) for providing beginning to advanced language programs for families of all types. We are also grateful for the additional courses -- Tai chi, Martial arts, Chinese Harp, Chinese brush painting, Chinese summer camp -- ECA offers to children and adults alike. For two years our family has benefited greatly from the resources ECA brings to our community. How fortunate our Asian American family is to have the offerings of the ECA.”

我们知道汉语是未来的国际性语言，作为两个领养的中国女孩的父母，我们相信让我们的孩子学习这门既是她们的母语，又是未来国际性的语言是十分重要的。我们很感谢长青中文学院为各种类型的家庭提供的从初级到高级的汉语课程，同时也很喜欢其他相关的适合成人和孩子的课程:太极、武术、中国古筝、中国画及中文夏令营。两年来，我们的家庭从长青中文学院为社区开办的各项课程中受益非浅。我们感到有长青中文学院在身边是我们这个亚美组合式家庭的荣幸。
“Kaeli asks each night before going to bed “Will I go to Chinese school tomorrow?” and then claps with glee and yells “Yeah!” when she hears she will be. Belinda and her staff are caring, capable and compassionate people who are focused on making learning fun for the children. We are greeted every morning with open arms, kind words and welcoming smiles. The staff is focused on making learning fun for the children, which has helped Kaeli blossom and advance so quickly. She ends each day smiling from ear to ear and has wonderful things to share with us – crafts she has made during the day, stories to tell, new words to share. We wish the school was full-time year round!”
Cheryl Towne, Kaeli’s MaMa
Kaeli每晚睡觉之前都会问：“明天送我去中文学校吗？”当她听到肯定的回答时，便会高兴得鼓掌欢呼…“Yeah!”…..雷校長和她的员工们是那样的有爱心、有能力和充满激情，他们让孩子们感受学习是一种快乐。我们每天早上来到中文学校，都得到热情的欢迎、美好的祝福和甜蜜的笑脸。Kaeli在“快乐教育”下成长进步的非常快，她每天都过得很开心，并将那些学会的美好的事情与我们分享，比如：她白天亲手制作的手工艺品、讲新故事给我们听、还有她新学会的词汇等等。我们希望这样的学校能全年全天候的对我们开放。
Evergreen Chinese Academy has become another home for my child! Drs. Louie are gifted and visionary principals, supported by a wonderful array of creative and compassionate instructors. The variety of approaches to Chinese language and culture include many activities enjoyed by children of all ages, such as crafts, dance, and music. An atmosphere of positive energy, warmth, and caring is apparent throughout the building. I would recommend Evergreen Chinese Academy to anyone seeking a rewarding learning experience!

长青中文学院已经成为我孩子的另一个可爱的家了。在这里，雷向荣医生、雷吴润瑛博士凭借自己的才智遠見，带领着一批有创意和富有激情的老师们，他们以中国语言和文化为主题开展的各种活动让各年龄段的孩子们乐此不疲，有手工制作、舞蹈、音乐等等，使整个学校充满着积极、温暖和友爱的氛围。我愿意将长青中文学院介绍给所有希望开阔眼界、拓展知识的人们。
My name is Christine Kilduff. My two daughters have been students at the Evergreen Chinese Academy since January 2008. Belinda Louie, the co-principal, effectively leads the academy staff by setting a tone of positive discipline and caring dedication to all children. Parents and children feel very comfortable and welcome as soon as they enter the door to Evergreen Chinese Academy. I appreciate the school’s commitment to the care and welfare of all children. The teachers provide each child with a solid understanding of the Chinese culture and the Mandarin language. Seldom can one find an educator who epitomizes dedication, care, and compassion that you will find in Mrs. Louie.
