On behalf of our client, China Online Education Group, a foreign private issuer organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), we are filing herewith the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) via EDGAR with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
