About Me
italki teacher since Feb 21, 2018Me as a Teacher
My students are from every walk of life from all corners of the globe, such as Brazil, Korea, and France. We don't just study a language in class; we exchange our cultures and learn from each other's perspectives in the meantime. We learn a language to become a global citizen and shape a deeper understanding of the world!My lessons & teaching style
I provide a wide variety of English lessons that can suit your needs. Whether it’s life conversation, for business use, or for IELTS preparation, I have plenty of materials and my own insights to share with you. As for Mandarin Chinese teaching, I am a university lecturer in Taipei, Taiwan. I believe learning with me can help you get ready for studying or working in a Chinese speaking country.
My teaching is effective because I understand second language learners' pain points and mistakes that non-natives are prone to make. My students told me that they found my explanations very clear and easy to understand. Just message me to discuss your needs! See you in class :)My teaching material

Yen is an awesome Chinese teacher! Although she offers “informal tutoring”, her classes are in fact professional and well prepared. She’s patient and good at getting even low-level students talking the target language for the whole lesson. Being from Taiwan, her pronunciation is standard as well as beautiful, and she can help with both simplified and traditional characters. If only she weren’t so busy teaching English (luckily she avoids English in Chinese lessons), I’d be able to book even more lessons with her! Today’s lesson included sports talk as well as a realistic role play about scheduling business meetings.
