Hello! Iβm Emily, a native Mandarin speaker based in Beijing.
I have over 20 years of experience working in international environments and truly enjoy connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.
I am passionate about language learning and cultural exchange, and I believe learning a language is not just about vocabulary and grammar, but also about understanding the culture behind it.
In my free time, I enjoy reading and cooking, and I have a strong interest in traditional Chinese culture. I often bring cultural topics into my lessons to make learning more interesting and meaningful.
