About Us
Our Story
Datong Academy began in 2014 as a small Chinese learning group of just three children.
In 2018, it was officially founded by Dr. Zhiwei Liu, a linguist who had previously taught at the College of Chinese Language and Culture, Beijing Normal University, and the Department of East Asian Studies, Princeton University.
Experts Guiding Children into the World of Chinese
From the founder to every teacher, all members of Datong Academy hold advanced degrees in relevant disciplines such as Chinese literature, history, philosophy, linguistics, education, and Teaching Chinese as an International Language. Bringing together the strength of experts, Datong Academy provides tailor-made, professional Chinese learning experiences for each student.
Curriculum Design
Our curriculum is diverse and precisely designed, catering to learners of different ages, language levels, and cultural backgrounds. We create personalized content and teaching methods, ensuring that every child learns Chinese effectively—without detours.
Small Classes, Quality Learning
To maximize every student’s opportunity to use and practice Chinese, our regular classes are intentionally kept small.
Comprehensive Support and Personalized Follow-up
Each student receives free one-on-one after-class tutoring, allowing them to experience full-spectrum learning support at Datong Academy.
