University Lecturer | Business Chinese | Chinese Character Culture Hello! I'm Mi, a university lecturer and Mandarin teacher with over 10 years of teaching experience. My teaching focuses on adult learners and combines practical communication, Chinese culture, and the stories behind Chinese characters. I believe language learning becomes more meaningful when learners understand not only what to say, but also why Chinese people think and communicate in certain ways. Before becoming a full-time educator, I worked in international shipping, human resources, and business development in China. This experience allows me to help professionals understand both Business Chinese and Chinese workplace culture in real-world contexts. My teaching is influenced by linguistics, character-based learning, and performance-based activities. Rather than relying on memorization alone, I help students discover the logic, patterns, and cultural foundations behind the language. Lessons are tailored to each learner’s goals, interests, and learning style. Whether you are learning Mandarin for daily communication, HSK preparation, professional development, or cultural exploration, I look forward to helping you achieve your goals. I offer: • Mandarin for Adults • Business Chinese: Working with Chinese Companies • Chinese Character Origins & Culture I look forward to meeting you in class!

One of the most interesting Chinese lessons I've ever had. Mi explained the origins and evolution of Chinese characters in a very engaging way. It helped me understand not only the language but also Chinese culture.

我非常推荐高级中文学习者和李米老师一起学习,她不仅会传授汉语知识,更重要的是中国历史诗词歌赋她都深谙研究,她不仅知道每个词语的演变历史,还知道和这个字有关的中国文学历史是怎么描述的,我非常享受中国古典诗词和日本俳句之间的碰撞。

Limi is a fantastic and dedicated teacher who always roots for her students’ success. I always have a great time conversing with her and she is a fountain of knowledge when it comes to how the components of characters makeup the meaning of a word just the culture and tradition that I’m learning from her will make my China trip later year so much more deep and thoughtful. 谢谢Limi老师!

我不仅非常享受上课的时间,每次下课撰写评价我也觉得非常有用。李米老师是我见过的最有深度和专业的老师,有时候我觉得自己像是回到了大学时光,我不是只是在学习汉语,而是在大学里面进行专业课的学习。对于中文学习者这种体验真的太棒了!希望可以一直可以和李米老师学习中国文化和文学!

和李米老师已经认识很久了,之前很高兴在大阪也有机会和老师面对面上课,在大阪一起上课的三个月是我中文进步最快的时间。我非常喜欢老师对中国古典诗词的解释,就像日本的俳句一样,让我可以从自己的语言去体会中国诗歌的魅力。如果你的中文和我一样好,我非常推荐李米老师,因为她的中文不仅仅是母语,我觉得她完全是创作者的水平!
