Chen Ying is amazing - she’s always well-prepared and patient. She explains everything clearly and in detail, correcting my mistakes with helpful explanations. Lessons are tailored to my needs, full of practice and great examples. I really appreciate that she mainly uses Chinese, switching to English only when needed. The lessons are not just effective but also a lot of fun. I’ve made great progress thanks to her!

Another great lesson. A lot of interesting grammar points explained and I especially liked the listening practice at the end and having to repeat the phrases… 🤓

Another great lesson. I am really enjoying the way you use Chinese to explain everything during the lesson even if it takes me a while to understand. And each lesson has so much useful grammar...it's great!

This was my first lesson. She mixed a lot of Chinese with a bit of English, so that caught my brain by surprise. However, somehow we go through it with ease. She was very patient and did not rush me. I was given many opportunities to speak and practice the concepts we learned. I look forward to my next lesson.

I enjoyed my first lesson back after a long break. I love being challenged by hearing mostly Chinese during our lessons and the structure is always about learning, practising and improving! Thank you 😊
