About Me

Nihao! My name is Dai Mengli. You can also call me Spencer.
🧑🏫 I’m a certified Chinese teacher with over 2,000 hours of teaching experience, having taught more than 100 students from around the world since 2019.
📖 Growing up with several Chinese dialects sparked my love for languages — I later studied English, French, and German, and truly understand the journey of language learning.
🌍Having traveled to over a dozen countries and lived in Europe for six months, I’ve developed a strong sense of cross-cultural understanding. In my classes, you’ll not only learn authentic expressions, but also explore the culture and stories behind them.Me as a Teacher
❤️I’ve been teaching adult students from different countries for five years, covering all proficiency levels. My lessons are always personalized to fit each learner’s needs — whether you’re a complete beginner or aiming to speak more naturally and authentically.
❤️My longest-term student has studied with me for over four years, progressing from a total beginner to communicating fluently in daily life. Seeing such progress is what inspires me most as a teacher. I work as both a Chinese and English teacher, and also teach Chinese adults English online. My lessons & teaching style
✨The learning process includes two parts:
1, In class (present/practice): we will work on grammar and vocabulary by having practical conversations.
2, After class (produce): I will assign you some homework to do, including translations and further exercises. Practice makes it perfect!
✅ The courses I provide:
Beginner Basics
HSK Courses
Business Chinese
Daily Chinese
Any topics you would like to learn
（Same with English courses)
I promise you will enjoy every lesson with me. BECAUSE I WILL. I will help you to be more confident and experimental with Chinese by learning Chinese culture, music, business, and other fields you might be interested in.😄My teaching material
