Melissa's classes are very engaging. She is easy-going, patient, and extremely organized. Her deep teaching experience is evident in how skillfully she can teach beginning students all the way through advanced learners. Having studied well beyond HSK6+ level of Mandarin, but still struggling to get to native-level fluency, Melissa has been able to build a customized curriculum for me that is challenging, fun, and effective. Each class gives plenty of time for ad-hoc conversation, dedicated review and reading, as well as listening to authentic media with discussion. Highly recommended!

Melissa makes very efficient use of lesson time. I just had a 30-minute lesson with her so she could see what level my Chinese is and she still managed to squeeze a vocabulary lesson into that short time. Her English level is very high, so she has no trouble understanding you if you need to say something in English. But she's a good teacher because she still speaks Chinese even when you as the student drift into English. She keeps you feeling like you are immersed in a Chinese conversation, so your brain won't revert back to English thinking and lose the Chinese state of mind.

very good lesson
