用专业的语言教学与实战商业洞察，助您在中国市场赢得先机。Over 3 years of specialized experience teaching Business, Survival, and Travel Chinese to international learners. My extensive travel across the U.S., U.K., Australia, Japan, South Korea, and other countries has fostered a deep cultural understanding.
Previously, I served as a Procurement Manager for a US-owned company, gaining direct, hands-on expertise with Chinese suppliers and SCM, including S&OP, IM, and cross-dept operations.
This unique combination of language instruction and practical business acumen allows me to equip professionals with the precise communication skills and cultural insights needed to navigate China's commercial landscape.Me as a Teacher
会讲上海话能结合企业实务的汉语辅导教师。
I have over two years of experience teaching Chinese as a foreign language. I provide tailored Chinese instruction that bridges language learning with real-world business application. My experience includes designing and delivering practical lessons in Survival, Travel, and Business Chinese for professionals in Shanghai, often extending beyond the classroom to include on-site supplier visits and negotiation support. Through partnerships with leading language institutions, I teach a diverse international student base online and in-person, guiding learners from beginner to intermediate proficiency with a focus on actionable communication skills. My lessons & teaching style
用生动有趣的方式，带你学会汉语，更读懂中国文化！I am well-versed in a wide range of Chinese textbooks popular among international learners, including HSK, New Target Spoken Chinese, Travelling Chinese, and Conversation 360. My teaching is student-centered and tailored to individual needs.
I strive to make every class dynamic and engaging. While systematically covering essential language points, I enrich the learning experience by integrating meaningful cultural content—from music and customs to history and geography—so that students not only learn the language but also connect with the culture behind it. I also offer introductory Shanghai dialect lessons tailored for daily communication and cultural integration.My teaching material
