Since 2002, Carden China has used the Carden Method to teach English to Chinese elementary students in Beijing China. Carden China teaches English to over 1000 students each year. We are “child-focused" not “business focused”. We work side by side with Chinese teachers to ensure the student’s learning experience is productive and joyful. This partnership and use of the Carden Method gives our students a proven advantage in learning English over traditional ESL methods.
