Tzu Chi Academy was first established in Los Angeles in 1994 with a unique focus on teaching students about not the only Chinese language and culture, but also the practice of joyous giving by showing sincere compassion.  
​
Professional instructors at Tzu Chi Academy also incorporate the Chinese language and culture through interactive and fun lessons – many of which further fulfilling the robust and theme-based Chinese instruction.

Classes are available for both beginners and those of intermediate levels of proficiency. Our goal is for this linguistic and cultural experience to build the student’s confidence and proficiency in communication through a significant world language, and to cultivate respect, love, and caring, toward all people.
