About Me
∙ 8+ years of experience. Certificates from both Taiwan and China.
∙ Former Chinese instructor at Stetson University in Florida.
∙ Highly skilled in coaching absolute beginners, intermediates, and lower advanced students.

Hello! My name is Stephanie Chung. I am from Taipei, Taiwan. I have been teaching Mandarin Chinese for more than 8 years in the United States.
Our lessons are going to center around your goals and your needs. My job is to enable you to do most of the talking comfortably and confidently -- we are going to explore proper pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and culturally appropriate ways of speaking, to make your messages more natural and clear to native speakers.
Depending on your needs and learning styles, we might work on structured courses based on trusted materials, talk about different topics, and learn through various articles and video clips. We can play games, work on role-playing exercises, have discussions, do interviews, and engage in many kinds of activities to help you learn better.
What are your goals? What do you want to improve? Let me know more about you and your studies to help me understand your needs. Can't wait to see you in class!
Comments from my students at Stetson University in my course evaluation:
"Ms. Chung is one of the best teachers I've ever had at Stetson. She really knows how to teach a foreign language. This is probably because she also had to learn English at some point."
"She was incredibly organized every day for class and presented the material in a way that was both challenging yet able to follow."
