Chen Hao is busy these days preparing for a salon called "learn to speak Suzhou dialect". The first salon will be held at Link City, a new base of Know Howe Club in 2015. Foreigners from nearby areas are welcome to the salon.

"This is a continuing culture extension based on English for Know Howe. We started from internationalization, and focus on localization after a period of development. Know Howe will always have the demands of people in mind, and hope more and more people can join us and get benefit," said Chen Hao, founder of Know Howe. Chen set up the club in 2010 for English communication and study. With the spirit of innovation and persistence through the media of language learning, Know Howe has built a big stage for cultural promotion and dissemination in recent years.

"We started from English learning because of the globalization of Suzhou Industrial Park. Now it's time to start learning Suzhou dialect. After all, we were born with the local culture," said Chen. "I love interactive teaching. Besides indoor salon, we can go on field trips to places of Suzhou charisma, such as classical gardens. The hillocks, rocks, architectures, and plants can stimulate one's desire of learning a language," Chen added. People's first language may be different, so the salon will be open to new comers and foreigners alike.
