Hello! My name is Cheng, and I’m from Xi'an, a city rich in history in China. I have a deep love for football, music, and movies. Ever since I was a child, I've had a keen interest in Chinese literature, and I enjoy writing prose in Chinese to capture the moments of life.
As a crazy football fan, I built a football fan club here in Xi'an with other people just like me. I often play football with international students and have formed lasting friendships with them. I also enjoy helping them learn Chinese.

Me as a Teacher
I will create a learning plan that fits the needs of each student. Based on my teaching experience, I can spot the challenges students may face in learning Chinese. My teaching style encourages interaction and engagement. Through practice exercises, I will help students improve their pronunciation and develop their critical thinking and language skills. I will also share information about Chinese culture, history, and customs so that students can learn more about China as they learn the language.
I’m excited to share more about China and its vibrant culture. I look forward to connecting, learning from each other, and growing together. I can't wait to embark on this journey with you!

Cheng did a fantastic job of reviewing the information from the last lesson and very carefully and strategically supported my pronunciation, which I find very difficult. Cheng was very supportive and patient throughout the whole lesson and I already look forward to my next lesson: thank you Cheng!

Cheng is a kind and patient teacher. I especially appreciate that he corrects my Chinese by saying back to me what I have just said but using correct grammar and vocabulary. I take those opportunities to repeat the corrected version. It’s also helpful that he types notes as we talk so that I can have visual cues while working on my speaking. I feel comfortable asking him questions and asking for clarification as a part of my learning process during my lessons with him. Thank you, Cheng!

A very present teacher that does not judge for mistakes, patiently explains and provides extra content for more context. He's able to make a very intimidating language look accessible :)
