LEGOO Mandarin was coined by David Yao in 2006,

He began to teach foreigners mandarin since 1995.

Adopting the worksheets approach rather than a single textbook, we invented many FUN, CHALLENGING, and SYSTEMATIC methods like LEGO games to challenge our students to make magic happen!

He devotes himself to teaching and turn it into a business venture since then.

Family related textbook publishing business can be traced back to 1956

Coined the concept of LEGOO in 1998 Formed Company in 2006 Started Website in 2007 Started Online classroom 2008 Evolved into Edeo in 2013 Using PLMS (Personal Learning Management

System) in 2014…


Challenges :Beginner (What is the best material for them?)

Foreigner (How to teach them?)

Different age groups(How to teach them efficiently?)

No Environment to speak (How to encourage them?)

No time (Any best solutions?)


Chinese is a pictorial language:


人 Rén People


So image how hard it is to learn Chinese! No alphabet, but thousands of mysterious symbols need to remember..Any secrets?We found it!


Can speak Chinese versus Teaching Chinese (Not everyone can teach!) Teach native Chinese versus Teaching Foreigners (Must be different!) Can you find the best teacher?

Why 365 Mandarin? Intensive reading or Deeper reading 精读 Extensive reading or speed reading 泛读 The class time is limited.. We encourage students to read more under guidance… The best is study daily … 365 days one year!

精读是区别与泛读而言的概念，指深入细致地研读。一个人要积累知识，就必须读书。对重要的文章和书籍，要认真读反复读，要逐字逐句地深入钻研，对重要的语句和章节所表达的思想内容还要做到透彻理解，这就是精读。

泛读是指广泛地阅读;通常也指一般性阅读。意在追求对作品的整体理解以及阅读速度，而不注重一些字句的翻译，也不会逐字逐句的理解文章。
