It was an amazing lesson! I’m 100% motivated to continue learning. The explanations were clear and easy to follow, and his English is excellent. I’m really looking forward to the next class.

她是一位非常有帮助的老师。Dou is a very helpful teacher with a very kind and patient approach towards her students. I did a trial class with her quite recently and immediately decided after 5 minutes in the class that she was the right tutor to continue my Chinese studies with; I highly recommend her!

My learning is faster compared to when I was purely self-studying. I’m also able to retain more knowledge because of the examples, and explanations.
She also gives tips on how native speakers usually say some words.
She is also open to feedback on what works for me and what I want to improve on.
