1. What is Kungfu English?
Kungfu English is a high-tech mobile learning system, designed for Chinese speakers to master English. It is delivered to learners via an app, on the Apple iOS platform (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, iPad mini).
Learning any new language requires two things: input, and output. We usually spend lots of time on input, such as hearing and listening, becoming familiar with the rules and the sense of the language. Building a strong foundation through lots of input prepares learners to master English quickly and easily. Kungfu English can help learners finish the input part successfully, and with the support of 1 to 1 English coaching, the learners have all they require to become fluent.
Learners can choose from three Kungfu English bundles, according to their own situation. To get started, simply visit the Kungfu English website.
