📚 Teaching Philosophy
My teaching philosophy is simple: language learning should be fun, engaging, and practical. I create an immersive environment where you develop your skills naturally through conversation and real-world contexts.
My lessons are interactive and humor-filled, designed to help you build confidence and fluency quickly.
Key principles:
・Personalization: Every lesson is adapted to your goals and learning style.
・Immersion: Lessons are primarily in Mandarin, with increasing complexity as you progress.
・Cultural Integration: Discover the depth of Chinese culture — from idioms to everyday customs.
・Practical Application: Learn useful, everyday Mandarin you can use immediately.
・Balanced Skills: Steady progress across speaking, listening, reading, and writing.
・Positive Reinforcement: Mistakes are natural — I use them as tools for growth.
My goal is not only to guide you toward fluency but also to inspire a lifelong passion for Mandarin and its culture.
