Patricia Chan

No matter the time of day, Patricia is always high energy, engaging and interested. We have a conversational Portuguese class, and I never have to worry about whether we will have enough topics to discuss. Patricia is a great conversationalist and a good listener. The classes always pass by quickly. Even though they are fun, she also corrects my grammar and improves my pronunciation. I’ve noticed that my spoken Portuguese feels more natural even after only a couple of months. If you are looking for a professional, experienced and funny teacher, Patty is a great choice for you.

My daughter had a great Mandarin tutoring session with Patricia. She introduced her to the various tones while engaging her in basic conversation. Patricia promptly replied to my initial inquiry and contacted me early to ensure our lesson would start on time. She was considerate, conscientious and quite professional.

Patricia is doing a wonderful job of helping me understand Portuguese grammar! She gives lots of good, relevant examples.

Profesora Patricia is wonderful. She has been so very patient with our children (8 and 6). They are at very different stages in terms of their ability to sit still and focus and their personalities are quite different. Patricia has been so conscientious about trying to find materials that will work for each while also being incredible positive and patient during class.

Patricia the goat

This was my first lesson with Patricia and my first lesson on Italki and it went great! I know very little Portuguese and she did a great job explaining the basic sounds of the language. She was very encouraging and helpful!
