In addition to direct schooling, little kids can also discover their nascent artistic talents at
3iArt ( www.3iart.com.cn ). The center is specialized in art education and offers art learning
programs for children from preschool age to age 15. You'll find it located north of Xizhi-
men subway station on Xizhimennei Daijie, opposite Maples International shopping mall.
Finally, if you want to study Chinese but don't have the time or desire to do a university
program, there are plenty of private Chinese schools in the vicinity. Just some of the
better-known ones include Global Village ( www.gvschinese.com ) and Sinoland
( www.sinolandchinese.com ) . Both are located in Wudaokou and relatively affordable. Sino-
land places intense and ongoing emphasis on pronunciation, making sure you get each and
every tone right so that people actually know that you want to “ask” (wèn) them something
and not “kiss” (w ě n) them.
