Me as a Teacher
I currently teach students from different countries in the world.
It all began with meeting with a Nigerian many years ago. He's looking for a place to eat when I met him near my home. I guided him to the nearest restaurant. So he thanked me and exchanged phone numbers with me. Guess what? I became his Chinese teacher later.
My mother and grandfather are both university professors, so I've always been passionate about teaching. My undergraduate major is English Education. I've 3 years of teaching experience as a Chinese teacher and 5 years of teaching experience as an English teacher for Chinese kids, thus accumulating rich teaching experience.
I'm patient,funny and responsible.
My lessons & teaching style
If you’re a busy office worker, perhaps you have no time to review and practise after class, so I'll guide you to practise over and over again during the class,which are designed in a gradual way and based on your vocabulary.
If you’re a boisterous kid, I’ll carry out my teaching through flashcards, singing, tongue twisters, puzzles, games,etc. It’s also important to make friends and provide emotional value.
If you just want to free talk, I'll design different topics and immersive learning experience according to your preference and demands. For example, we can watch video clips and chat about Chinese TV shows and movies.
After class, I’ll provide the key points, feedback and assignment.

Ich bin absolut begeistert von den Stunden! Der Unterricht ist jedes Mal top vorbereitet und sehr gut strukturiert. Was mich besonders überzeugt: In nur einer Stunde verbessern wir Grammatik, erweitern den Wortschatz UND üben das freie Sprechen – eine perfekte Mischung.
Ich bin sehr froh, endlich eine Lehrerin gefunden zu haben, die so kompetent und engagiert ist. Die Stunden machen großen Spaß und ich lerne sehr viel. Sehr empfehlenswert!
