About Me
italki teacher since Mar 4, 2022
Hi there! Thank you for visiting my profile. My English name is Michelle Chow and my Chinese name is 周天霓, but you can just call me Michelle! I'm a Chinese-Malaysian who grew up in the heart of Malaysia - Kuala Lumpur. Coming from a multicultural country and having studied in a Chinese primary school, I can speak Mandarin, Malay, and a bit of Hokkien. However, my native language is actually English! Previously, I was an English teacher for students aged 3-10 at an international school. Recently, I have just graduated with a First-Class Honours Degree in Psychology (心理学) from Monash University. Besides loving to teach, in my spare time I enjoy exploring mother nature and raising guppy fishes.
Me as a Teacher
I aim to be both a coach (教练)and a language buddy (语言伙伴). Whilst I believe that having a mentor to guide you step-by-step is important, in order to gain confidence in speaking a language, having a buddy to converse and practice English with is also equally important. I'm a big believer in customising lessons to meet students where they are, so don't be afraid to make mistakes! 而且,我们也可以用中文说话! You can expect my classes to be organised and interactive with quizzes and videos.
With my Psychology degree, I can also teach Psychology based on your interests (e.g. how to study better).
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, my goal is to help you express yourself freely and confidently! 😊

Teacher’s pick
Michelle prepared a lot of topics and she knows how to lead a conversation, you won’t get bored with her. Also, she is very understanding and considerate so you can talk about yourself freely without any concerns. She supports you and she offers language guidance in time when you need one, so yeah I strongly recommend her class!
