In 2012, I graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a Master of Science in Language Teaching (specialization in teaching Chinese as a foreign language).
Previously I earned my double Bachelor Degrees of Education and Chinese Language and Literature from National ChengChi University in Taipei, Taiwan. I attended and successfully completed the training as "teaching Chinese as a foreign language" thus becoming a qualified Chinese teacher for foreigners and native speakers (Ministry of Education in Taiwan).
In Taiwan, I have not only taught Chinese as a second language to foreigners but also Chinese language and literature to native speakers (High School level).
I teach both simplified and traditional Chinese characters and also both PinYin and ZhuYin phonetic systems. I can accommodate your needs no matter which system you would like to learn.
The courses are developed based on students' personal needs, interests, and requirements. Language is a tool of communication. Therefore, I want to give students interesting topics which are useful and practical for them. Students could also discuss the time of the lesson with the teacher, which makes the learning more personalized.
- My students are from all over the world. I have taught people from Poland, Germany, Turkey, Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Indonesia, Israel, Spain, the USA, and Canada. They are aged between 3-73 years old. No matter they are children, teenagers, adults, or the elderly, I can use different methods to support their learning.
- If you have to cancel the lesson, please cancel it 24 hours before the lesson starts.
