PandaTree makes it fun for kids to build language fluency and confidence through one-on-one online tutoring sessions. PandaTree tutors have all been kid-tested for friendliness, and rigorously screened. Online video sessions are personalized to the student’s language level—beginner to advanced—and the student’s interests.

After each session, kids love earning animated Pandas and playing word games with the new words they learned—and parents love getting email updates after each session about what their child covered, and they can even watch a recording of the session.

All sessions are backed by PandaTree’s 100 percent money–back guarantee. PandaTree currently offers tutoring in Mandarin Chinese, and Spanish and French are coming soon.
