Co-Create · Co-Build · Share

We believe in a community-driven approach. When educators contribute and share resources, the entire ecosystem grows — ensuring that high-quality Chinese education is accessible to every teacher and student, everywhere in the world.

Our Story

SReading was born in the classroom.

In 2016, Bitao, founder ofTongLe Chinese School, recognized that traditional materials were failinga new generation of heritage learners. Driven by a deep passion for educational innovation, she made a bold decision — leaving her career as a financial analyst at Microsoft to build a better way to teach Chinese.

Thecurriculumflourished. But by 2022, one critical piece was still missing: a practical, integrated digital tool that could bring everything together. To close that gap, Dingcheng left his role at GE to co-found SReading and assemble the team that would build it.

Today, SReading has grown from a simple reading tool into a comprehensive platform covering learning, teaching, and school management. Built exclusively for the overseas market, we empower educators to teach with confidence — and students to learn with purpose.
