First and foremost, THANK YOU to those who donated supplies and necessities to help get our friends in LA through the fires and turmoil. We are so touched to see the community come together in times of need. 首先，衷心感谢所有捐赠物资和必需品的朋友们！你们的爱心让我们的洛杉矶朋友们能够更好地应对火灾和困难。在需要帮助的时候，看到大家齐心协力真的让我们非常感动！

**Throughout the term, especially within your first 2 weeks, our lead instructors will make placement recommendations, so that our students can continue to challenge themselves either in the intro class for each level, or in tutorial sessions for those who excel in smaller groups and/or are prepping to advance to the next level. This also allows us to be flexible in splitting large classes into smaller sessions to keep our student : teacher ratio below 8 : 1, while minimizing the need to change your pickup/dropoff time. 温馨提示：在课程的前两周，我们的负责老师将根据学生的水平提供分班建议，帮助大家找到最适合自己的课程。如果有学生更适合小班辅导或者正在为更高水平的课程做准备，我们也会安排他们加入对应的辅导班。这种安排可以让大班拆分成小组，确保师生比例控制在 8:1 以下，同时尽量减少您接送时间的变化。
