Region 12 Virtual School in Partnership with mylanguage360 Offers Online Chinese Courses to Texas Students

With more than 30 sections of Chinese classes available each semester, mylanguage360 has found a solution that is customizable for every school district. The program allows students to interact face-to-face with their teacher twice a week, and the remaining portion of the class can be accessed from their schools’ classrooms, libraries, computer labs, and even from home.

ESC Region 12 Virtual School and mylanguage360’s partnership allows students to be independent. By logging in to a learning management system, they are able to finish their assignments, quizzes, tests, and activities, receive feedback from their teacher about their work, and easily access their grades, progress, and curriculum all on their own.

This program is giving students a 21st century learning experience, as well as preparing them for a world that is becoming more globalized every day. The mylanguage360 teachers are all certified, spread across the country and around the globe.
Andy Polito, mylanguage 360’s co-founder said they chose to teach Chinese online because of its growing presence in the global marketplace.

“Chinese is quickly emerging alongside English and Spanish as a major global language for business, diplomacy, science, and popular culture. A command of Mandarin Chinese can open up a world of career and academic opportunities for American students.”
