Design Mark
The mark consists of a winking boy with light peach skin, black eyes, black nose, black mouth, and a single curl of black hair standing back-to-back with a smiling girl with light peach skin, black eyes, black nose, black mouth, and two black hair buns and a curl of black bangs. Both figures are outlined in black. They stand adjacent to the wording "BETTERCHINESE" written in dark blue. The boy is on the left, and is wearing a red shirt with green and yellow patterns on the front with white cuffs, and red pants with white cuffs.

The girl is on the right, and is wearing a green, red and white, Chinese bib-style shirt with green and yellow patterns on the front with white cuffs, and green pants and black shoes. The girl is holding the tail of an orange computer mouse in the shape of a mouse outlined in black with black eyes and nose. White otherwise represents background and is not part of the mark.
