Zoe is a fun and rewarding teacher to have, our lessons are interactive and enjoyable. She also explains concepts in an easily understandable way which I feel has improved my knowledge already after a few lessons. Homework assigned between classes helps to reinforce my learning and motivates me to keep studying on a day-to-day basis. The lessons are accommodating to my level and she adjusts the study plan according to my needs.
I would recommend Zoe to anyone who wants to improve their Mandarin, whether that be character recognition, speaking, listening, grammar or otherwise :)

I love 赵老师! She's super organized and truly challenges me every lesson. The structure of her course is just what I was looking for with a strong focus on reading. She is always prepared, sends homework, and is extremely patient. It doesn't matter how long it takes me to read a passage or how many times she has to repeat the meaning of a character, she does it with a smile! Already bought a package to continue working with her as long as I can.

Zoe is a great teacher because she was able to pick up exactly what level I was at within a single class and then create a whole curriculum fit for me. We go through a lot of textbook materials but also have time to converse in Chinese so I get practice in many forms. I can now speak Chinese to my in-laws and I feel much more confident being able to read in Chinese as well too.
I've learned a lot under her, and I would recommend her as a teacher to anyone wanting to learn Chinese.
