I've been a Mandarin tutor online for the past 9 years. I'm flexible, friendly, patient and passionate in teaching, and I've taught children and adults alike.
I continually attend teacher training and professional development, and I've received multiple certifications in teaching Chinese. My goal is to help you understand Mandarin better and help you be able to practice Mandarin on your own! I cover various topics on my Youtube channel and Substack articles about this fascinating language. 😊
For adults, parents, and even kids!
