online Chinese teacherMy students include different ages of students.I taught comprehensive Chinese course, conversation practice course and pinyin course.I liked using interesting tools such as PPT games,drawing and group competitions to teach children language in order to let them feel fun when learning Chinese.t.As for my adult students,I usually encourage them to speak an much as they can because I believe that conversation is the most important part of getting hang of a language.

The purpose of the course is practicing oral Chinese.I provide different topics for the students to talk about and help them improve expressions and pronunciations.

Yan 老师 is a professional and supportive teacher and always encourages me to speak Chinese. I think that my pronunciation and vocabulary have improved a lot ever since I started lessons with her. The atmosphere during the lesson is very friendly and fun, and thanks to that, I'm not afraid to make mistakes. Our lessons are the highlight of my week - I enjoy them a lot ❤️
