🌟 Hola! Hello! 你好! I’m Brady (叶佳明), a trilingual tutor specializing in beginner-friendly and conversational Spanish, English, and Mandarin. Whether you’re starting from scratch or polishing fluency, I’ll help you speak naturally with real-world phrases and cultural tips—no textbook robots here! 🌍
When I’m not teaching, I’m learning languages (currently Dutch/Russian!) or spiking volleyballs 🏐. My passion for communication makes lessons dynamic, relatable, and fun—like chatting with a knowledgeable friend!
✨ Policies: 24-hour cancellation/reschedule. Late? I’ll wait 15 mins.

Me as a Teacher
🎓 I have experience teaching Spanish, English, and Mandarin Chinese, helping students build confidence and fluency while exploring the cultures behind these languages. I believe that understanding culture is key to learning, so our lessons will combine language practice with real-world context and traditions.
Since starting my teaching journey in 2020, I’ve worked with students from various backgrounds, tailoring lessons to their needs — whether it’s improving conversation, mastering grammar, or gaining cultural insight. Let’s start your language journey together—book a lesson today!
My lessons & teaching style
Every lesson is tailored to your level, needs, and goals.
Conversational Lessons: We’ll focus on topics you enjoy, like hobbies or current events, to improve fluency and confidence. I’ll provide vocabulary lists, take notes on platforms like Google Docs or WeChat, and use tools like Quizlet to support your learning.
Structured Lessons: Using textbooks, articles, or videos, we’ll expand your vocabulary, improve grammar, and practice native expressions. Lessons combine learning and real-world practice for lasting progress.
Before starting, we’ll discuss your goals to ensure a personalized and enjoyable learning experience!

120-Hour TESOL Certificate - International Open Academy - 2020With this 120-Hour TESOL Certificate Course, I learned many fundamental factors in English teaching. I completed this course recently so that I could become a better teacher for my students here on italki and here in the Dominican Republic. This course contains a lot of important information that every professional teacher should know, and should implement too.
