US children take to Mandarin to improve job prospects
LOS ANGELES - The 135-year-old Castelar Elementary School in downtown Los Angeles never stops its efforts at academic diversification.
With a Mandarin language immersion program in full swing, the school says students of the Chinese language are becoming younger.
"The youngest students I have are the 5 years old, the ones in preschool. The younger they are, the faster they learn," teacher Wendy Yang said.
