MLCCC Chinese Summer Camp in Center City Philadelphia, PA
Located at the
Russell Byers Charter School

at 1911 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103, our MLCCC Chinese Language and Culture
Summer Camp teaches children (ages 3 to 12 years old) Mandarin Chinese language
and Chinese culture in an engaging and caring environment. Prior knowledge of Chinese
is not necessary.
Children will learn Chinese through songs, dances, martial arts, storytelling, performing

teachers are native Mandarin Chinese speakers who have experience teaching and working
with children. Many are teachers at prior years' summer camps or at our Weekend
