About Me
italki teacher since Jan 16, 2019
I am a Chinese teacher who previously hosted a language education programme on national television. In addition to helping students of all ages and levels achieve their language learning goals, I also work as a part-time travel writer for some of Taiwan’s top magazines and websites.
I have studied English in Ireland and the UK, so I am at home whether teaching in English or Mandarin. I am also fluent in Taiwanese and Cantonese, which are available as separate courses or language of instruction. If you are looking for a Chinese teacher who can make an accurate assessment of your current level, I am the perfect person to help you , so don’t hesitate to join my class if you’re interested!
Me as a Teacher
If you are looking for a Chinese teacher who can make an accurate assessment of your current level and then tailor a course to not only meet your learning goals but also increase your language proficiency faster than you thought possible, contact me today for a free consultation.
My lessons & teaching style
During my classes, I focus on accurate pronunciation, essential words and phrases, and relevant cultural information. I also offer tailored courses to students wishing to develop proficiency in specialised areas, such as business, translation, and test preparation. I incorporate a range of learning materials, including games, stories, and interactive activities, all of which are designed to promote rapid progress and make learning enjoyable.
I was really fluent in Chinese (Mandarin) and I now am learning Taiwanese with Ingrid. She teaches you, talks more about the background of how things work, and also makes some funny mnemonics to help you remember things a lot better. She is an excellent teacher.

Teacher Ingrid was very kind and patient with me. She has lived in the UK for a while and her English ability is incredible so she understands the process and difficulties of pushing one's language ability to advanced and beyond. We had a lot of fun chatting and getting to know my level and study style so Ingrid was very considerate about this.

Ingrid is an amazing teacher who not only gave me so much new Mandarin vocabulary, but simultaneously gave me exposure to Taiwanese culture, as well as travel tips in preparation for my trip to Taiwan. She is patient, friendly, entertaining and has so much to share!
