I've been to 30+ countries including Latvia, Iran, Turkey, Mexico, Australia and so on. I've dived, skydived, paraglided and gone for 1.5months long motorcycle trip. I speak English well so I can explain grammatical questions clearly. I am also learning Spanish and the local languages when I stay there. 🌲Tailor lessons according to students' levels and needs, various materials are provided 🌲Have good understanding of English so can explain how Chinese is related to or different from English, also can understand the common mistakes that English speakers make 🌲Have many different interests and have lived&traveled in 30+ countries, so we will have endless topics to discuss in class In the class: 1. I encourage you speak Chinese as much as possible; 2. I provide timely feedback by noting down new vocabulary, errors, and suggestions without interrupting your speech; 3. I guide you to construct your own sentences and help you review previously covered material; 4. I compile class notes and send study documents for review, and I can also prepare assignments if needed.

Nicole is always helpful, punctual, patient, and kind. She remembers all kinds of details of our past lessons and knows which words I know (or should know!) and which words will be new.

I'm always impressed with Nicole's openness, friendliness, and ability to clearly explain the nuances of both Mandarin and Cantonese, as well as how they relate to English words when further clarification is needed. Even 90-minute classes always fly by very quickly with Nicole!
