Hannah Liu

The past couple months we have been working on improving my enunciation. We usually read a news article each class with and without shadowing, and with and without pinyin. Of the 30+ teachers I’ve talked with on italki, she is the most methodical and patient.

I have taken lessons with many different Chinese teachers and I think Hannah is one of the best out there. She always makes sure to only speak Chinese during our lessons so that I get lots of listening practice, and even though my Chinese level is still very low, I never have trouble understanding because she always explains things very well using words I can understand, and is very patient when I need to hear things a second or third time. Our lessons involve a good balance of reading, speaking and listening, working through activities as well as just general conversation practice. I believe I have learned a lot since my first lesson 谢谢你老师 :)

刘晶老师，我也很高兴认识你！当我在选择中文老师的时候，一看到你的介绍视频，你就立刻给了我很好的印象。我相信你会帮我把中文水平提高到更高的水平。 谢谢你

When we practice conversation, I am always grateful that Hannah uses words I learned recently or new words she recently taught me so I can learn in context. She is a great conversationalist and the topics we cover are always interesting. She is always patient when I think of a word and uses Chinese to help me when needed [never English]. 谢谢老师！

Me encanta Hannah Me está corrigiendo y guiando y es muy profesional y agradable Estoy muy contenta con mi segunda clase !🙂

It’s nice to start lessons again with Hannah 老师. I’m still getting used to the updated italki platform, but she is very patient and supportive. Even though it’s been over a year since my last lesson, she remembered me and we were able to continue easily. I’m always amazed that we speak mostly Chinese during class. Even as a beginner, I rarely use English, and she hardly speaks it, yet I can still understand her. I still need to improve my pronunciation and reading, but I feel confident learning with her.
