Hello! My name is Yan, and I'm from Hunan, China. I graduated with a degree in English and hold a senior high school teacher qualification, as well as a level 8 certificate in English proficiency and a Mandarin proficiency certificate. I've been teaching Chinese as a foreign language for over five years already. I have more than 400 students, many students can get a Iot in a short time.For example, some students can pass hsk1 within just one month, and their Chinese gets much better in just a few months.

Me as a Teacher

My teaching style is quite unique, which is different from the other teachers.I don't follow the old fashioned teaching pattern. I rebuilt a knowledge system which based on the parts where the students always make mistakes or get mixed up. And I put related knowledge together when teaching, so the students can jump quickly from one piece of knowledge to another easily. That makes their Chinese learning much easier to understand，if you learn with me, you will know the basic logic behind Chinese , even after finishing Hsk1,you can express yourself freely as long as you know the vocabulary.

My lessons & teaching style

My classes are quite interesting. First, I put culture stories into my teaching, and when we talk about the Chinese traditional festivals, I will go into details about the Culture stories behind them.Second, I use games in teaching when we learn about the Chinese daily conversation, the words and sentences, I will simulate scenarios like booking hotels when traveling, ask for directions in the street... so the students can learn the useful Chinese in a happy game. If you want to improve your Chinese ability effectively, your are warmly welcomed to my class .
