Nǐhǎo, 你好,Hi, Olá, Hola, Bonjour!
I am a Mandarin teacher at the Confucius Institute in Brussels, Belgium. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese and a Master's degree in Teaching Chinese as a Second Language.
I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French.
Besides teaching Mandarin, I also work as Portuguese-Chinese translator.
I am also an enthusiast of traditional Chinese medicine, particularly its benefits for improving body function. You can find my videos introducing traditional Chinese medicine on my YouTube channel:https://www.youtube.com/@ProfDoraYangMe as a Teacher

Professora inigualável.
Ela sempre se preocupa em preparar as aulas, é super paciente quanto confrontada com nossas dificuldades e, se não bastasse todo profissionalismo, ainda é super simpática.
Sou completamente iniciante no idioma e, assim como muitos, considero o idioma super difícil. Contudo, a Dora consegue fazer o difícil se tornar imperceptível.

The class is flowing faster now, I can understand most of the mandarin at normal speed and Dora knows very well what I'm capable of. New dynamics and unscripted exercises allow me to flourish in the language. 谢谢Dora😉

Dora is a fantastic teacher. In our first lesson, I felt very welcomed and encouraged to learn Chinese. She laid out how the language works and compared it to my native and second languages to demonstrate where Chinese is similar and where it differs. Her grammar and pronunciation lessons were easy to follow, fun, and very helpful. I will be booking another lesson. Thank you so much!
