I have been giving chinese lessons for more than 10 years. Before that, I was a radio broadcaster and a journalist in China, hence I have a perfect pronunciation of the official mandarin, without any accent. It provides my students the best conditions to learn chinese, as the tone you give to words when you speak chinese as a foreigner is of great importance if you want to be understood by natives.

I have a strong working experience helping students preparing their HSK exam, I also often teach diplomats, to help them acquire the necessary skills and understand properly the vocabulary specific to their job.

I also love to work with kids, as I was a mandarin teacher for 2 years in an international school in Singapore. I give them a playful learning environment and use fun learning methods, so even the youngest can stay focused!

▸ Who I Work With?

This course is designed for forward-thinking parents who want more than just language drills for their children. It's ideal for:

- Teens and young learners (10-18 years old) who are curious about Chinese language and culture — from complete beginners to those with some basic foundation

- Teens (13-18 years old) who already have some basic Chinese foundation and are ready to go beyond the textbook
Curious young minds who are interested in design, technology, business, or world cultures

- Families planning for the future — parents who believe that understanding China will give their children a global advantage

- Self-motivated learners who want to explore Chinese culture, modern trends, and creative thinking, not just memorize vocabulary

If your child needs a strict, traditional tutor for exam preparation only, I might not be the right fit. But if you want them to be inspired, to think differently, and to see Chinese as a window to a bigger world — let's talk.

──────────────────

▸What You Can Expect?

Every lesson is built around sparking curiosity and building real-world skills:

- Cultural Storytelling — Instead of boring dialogues, I use stories from my work as a designer and filmmaker to bring Chinese culture to life. Your child will explore Chinese art, history, internet culture, and modern trends.

- Project-Based Learning — We'll work on mini-projects that match your child's interests. Whether it's designing a Chinese social media post, creating a short video script, or exploring a Chinese city through research, they'll learn by doing.

- Critical Thinking in Chinese — I encourage students to ask questions, share opinions, and make connections between Chinese culture and their own world. This isn't about repeating after me — it's about thinking in Chinese.

- Flexible & Pressure-Free — No harsh drills, no rote memorization. I create a relaxed, encouraging space where your child feels safe to make mistakes and grow.

- HSK/YCT Preparation Support — For students interested in Chinese proficiency tests, I weave HSK/YCT content into our cultural exploration, building exam confidence alongside genuine curiosity.

──────────────────

▸Teaching Style

As someone who's worked in creative industries for years, I know that the best learning happens when you're genuinely interested. My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and conversational.

I don't talk down to young learners — I talk with them. I listen to their ideas, ask questions that make them think, and help them discover their own voice in Chinese. Parents often tell me that their children look forward to my lessons not because they "have to", but because they're genuinely curious about what we'll explore next.
