About Me
italki teacher since Dec 29, 2025InterestsBusiness & FinanceMarketingReadingTravelTech
Hi there! I’m a native Chinese teacher with 20 years of HR and senior headhunter experience. I can teach you practical, real-world Mandarin for work and daily life. Thanks to my corporate background, I teach useful skills like negotiations, networking and cultural know-how that you won’t find in textbooks!
My motto: Read widely, travel far, meet many.
If you have a strong interest in Chinese but are a complete beginner with no basic knowledge, feel free to join—you don’t need to worry or hesitate, as I can conduct the classes in English fluently.

🌟 My Teaching Style & Strengths
As a Chinese teacher, I excel at two-way class communication and adopt a lighthearted, humorous teaching style to keep lessons lively and engaging.
I simplify complex content for easy understanding and tailor teaching methods to different learners’ needs, ensuring personalized learning experiences.
🌍 My Personality & Cross-Cultural Advantages
I’m an avid bookworm (fond of psychology & humanities) and a travel enthusiast who has traveled independently to over 20 countries.
This experience gives me strong cross-cultural communication skills, eliminating language and cultural barriers.
I love making overseas friends！ My lessons & teaching style
