Hello! Nice to meet you!
I am Ava. I was born and raised in Chengdu, Sichuan, a beautiful, relaxing, and friendly city famous for delicious food and rich culture.
I hold dual master’s degrees — Applied Statistics & Telecommunications from US and UK, and graduated from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China.
I have a cheerful, patient, and enthusiastic personality. I love teaching, and I truly enjoy helping students from all over the world learn Mandarin and understand Chinese culture.
In my free time, I love traveling, reading, enjoying tea culture, sports, and exploring different cuisines. In my class, we can be not just teacher and student, but also friends.

I love the structure, paired conversations, and video clips that Ava provides. It allows me to learn quickly as I am engaging in the conversation and putting the new words into practice. not only that, but Ava is attentive and helps refresh any previous lessons that I may still be confused by referring to her past material. She answers questions very clearly, I would highly recommend her as a teacher!
