Tzu Chi Academy was first established in Toronto, Ontario, and Richmond, British Columbia, in 1997 with a unique focus on teaching students about not only the Chinese language and culture, but also the practice of joyous giving by showing sincere compassion.

Professional instructors at the Tzu Chi Academy incorporate the Chinese language and culture through interactive and fun lessons.

Classes are available for both beginners and those with an intermediate level of proficiency. Our goal is for this linguistic and cultural experience to build the student’s confidence and proficiency in communication through a significant world language, and to cultivate respect, love, and caring, toward all living beings.

1997年慈济分别在加拿大多伦多与列治文成立了加东和加西的第一所人文学校，创校至今，全加共有十所学校。
慈济人文学校的校训为「慈悲喜捨」，以此精神启发孩子本具的良知和良能。透过人文艺术的涵养，培养孩子懂得感恩、尊重、爱。

人文学校的课程多元化，不仅教授中文和才艺课程，更融入活泼的静思语教学和慈济人文课程，提供孩子全方位的人本教育。

欢迎来自中国、东南亚、台湾、加拿大及世界各地想要学习中文及人文的家庭加入。
