Teach You Hokkien is a mural on the wall of the Museum of Glass, in George Town, Penang. The mural faces Soo Hong Lane, though it is painted on a property on Armenian Street. It shows a boy saying, "Ka3 lu1 kong4 Hokkien," with translation in English as well as Chinese characters.

The Teach You Hokkien mural stirred a bit of controversy due to its proximity to the "Too Narrow" Steel-Rod Sculpture, and the fact that the proprietor of the business painted the wall a garish purple.
