About Me
My name is Edes, I have been teaching Mandarin Chinese and English for 5 years. I graduated from the University of Hull in the United Kingdom with the Bachelor degree in Marketing Management.

Work Experience and Area
I am a language enthusiast who cannot pass a day without exploring the world of languages. I can speak fluent Mandarin Chinese, English, Cantonese and Japanese. That is why I want to share my passion with my students. To share the skills of learning a language. My passion led me to study in Beijing Language and Culture University for the certificate of Teaching Chinese as a Second Language and in Beijing Normal University for the certificate of Putonghua Trainer.

I have worked in Hong Kong, Macau and Osaka, with public schools, private schools like Global Citizen and Private companies like Hyatt Regency Hotel. I do online teaching, face to face, 1 on 1 lesson. Also corporate and Intensive training. My students aged from 3 to 90 years old and they learn Chinese for different reasons, from having a hobby to dealing with Chinese customers.

Teaching Methodology
My lesson is conversation based and student centered. The main goal of my lessons is to get the student to speak and use the vocabulary they have learned. I always design my lessons to fit different needs. And I always try to create a relaxing environment with my sense of humor and different activities.

Who am I after class
I am a backpacker when I am not on a job. One of my biggest accomplishments was to travel around the world for a year with a tiny budget. And I am proud of myself everyday when I remember the days I spent conquering the Himalayas in Nepal.

With over 15 years of experience teaching this magnificent language, I am here to offer you a unique and engaging learning experience.
My teaching method is based on three key principles:
I +I+A = Immersion+ Interaction + Fun!!

First, immersion. Immerse yourself in Chinese language and culture from day one! Through practical exercises, stimulating conversations and exciting cultural activities, you will quickly be immersed in an authentic Chinese environment.

Second, interaction. Classes are not just passive listening sessions. On the contrary, I favor constant interaction between the students and myself, as well as between the students themselves. Role plays, debates, language challenges - everything is designed to encourage you to actively participate and develop your language skills in a dynamic way.

Finally, fun! Learning Chinese doesn't have to be boring or monotonous. With me, each class is an adventure full of surprises and discoveries. Games, fun activities, songs and even humorous anecdotes are there to make your learning as fun as it is productive.

**About My Classes**

Hi! I’m Leona, a native Mandarin speaker currently working as a full-time Chinese teacher at a secondary school in Thailand. I also teach Chinese online and specialize in HSK exam preparation.

I hold a CTCSOL certificate and have experience helping learners prepare for Chinese proficiency exams. My Mandarin pronunciation is clear and standard, and I focus on practical, structured methods that help students improve their performance and achieve measurable results.

**My Teaching Approach**

My main specialty is HSK exam preparation. I help students identify their weaknesses, set realistic study goals, and develop a targeted study plan based on their current level and exam date.

My lessons focus on the skills that matter for the exam, including vocabulary retention, character recognition, listening comprehension, reading comprehension, and practice with HSK-style questions. I use diagnostic exercises, targeted drills, mock tests, and regular feedback to help students understand their mistakes and improve systematically.

All the students I have trained for HSK exams so far have passed their respective exams. However, results depend on each student's starting level, effort, and consistency, so I cannot guarantee a particular result.

**Who Are My Classes For?**

My classes are best suited to self-motivated learners who have a clear goal and are willing to put in consistent effort outside class. I provide structured guidance and practical methods, but students are expected to complete assignments and take responsibility for their own progress.

Please note that my approach is intensive and practice-oriented. Some exercises, particularly listening repetition and dictation, can feel repetitive and challenging at first. However, consistent practice is essential for building the skills needed to perform well in an exam.

I also offer general Mandarin lessons and can help business professionals improve their Chinese communication skills. For business Chinese, I go beyond vocabulary and expressions to explore the cultural context of communication in Chinese workplaces.

If you are looking for a structured, goal-oriented approach to learning Chinese, I would be happy to help you work toward your goals.
