🌏 我曾是一名相机工程师，目前常住东京，作为自由职业者从事面向不同领域的设计工作。我是中文母语者，也能流利地使用英语，同时也是日语学习者。对我来说，好奇心是探索世界的原动力——我喜欢旅行✈️，乐于遇见并理解不同的人和文化🗣️🌸。在以往的经历中，我积累了一些教学经验。一次偶然的机会让我认真思考成为一名中文教师📚。语言不仅是沟通的工具🧩，也承载着一个群体长期以来的文化积淀和生活方式。每位学习者都有自己的理由选择学习中文，我也希望能陪伴他们在这段语言旅程中，找到属于自己的意义💬✨。 🌏 I used to work as a camera engineer and currently live in Tokyo, working as a freelancer on design projects across various fields. I’m a native Chinese speaker, fluent in English, and a learner of Japanese as well. Curiosity is what drives me to explore the world—I love traveling ✈️ and enjoy meeting and understanding people from different cultures 🗣️🌸.

Me as a Teacher

👩‍🏫 I like listening to my students and designing lessons based on their interests and goals. Whether it’s daily conversation, character practice, or cultural topics, I want learning to feel fun, relaxed, and meaningful 💡. Since I’m also learning Japanese, I understand how challenging language learning can be. In my classes, I hope students feel safe, free to express themselves, and not afraid to make mistakes 🌱. Language is a tool for connection—and we improve by using it!

My lessons & teaching style

💬 My lessons are practical and focused on spoken communication, helping students use Chinese naturally in real-life situations. We can practice daily conversations, self-expression, or specific settings like travel or work🛍️✈️💼. I’m happy to adjust the lessons based on what you want to focus on—whether it’s grammar, characters, listening, or cultural topics. Just let me know! 📘🗺️ My goal is to create a relaxed space where you can speak freely, build confidence, and enjoy using Chinese in real life 💪.
