Hi there! I'm Di, and you can call me Joy too. I graduated from one of the top finance and economics universities in China, majoring in Economic-oriented English. I've gained years of experience in finance roles at multinational corporations, and Iām an English tutor too.
I have a range of hobbies, including traveling, photography, watching movies, reading, writing, and playing the violin/ukulele. My passion for teaching grew from a core belief: language is more than a communication toolāitās a cultural bridge. As a culture lover, Iām eager to share Chinese culture and learn about yours.Me as a Teacher
As an English tutor, I've delivered nearly 200 one-on-one courses for kids. This role has refined my expertise in personalized lesson planning, relaxed and interactive communication, engaging activity design, and timely feedback and targeted correctionākey skills I now bring to my one-on-one Chinese courses. My lessons & teaching style
What am I good at?
š Linguistic Insight & Support. As an English major, I know where non-native learners struggle and their common mistakes. Therefore, I can create focused strategies to tackle these specific challenges.
š¼ Business-Focused Expertise. With a professional economics background, I help business learners master economic terms, communicate fluently in commercial scenarios, and gain insights into Chinese economic contexts and cultural norms. For interested learners, we can also dive into industry hot topics.
š± Beginner-Friendly Guidance. For Chinese newcomers, I use English when needed to help you get started quickly and feel comfortable.My teaching material
