Fangfang (Yiela)

My lessons with Fang Fang are completely tailor-made and designed around my needs. She always brings interesting content and guides me when I don't know a word or I mispronounce. I really could not recommend her more, and I always look forward to our next lesson!

I've taken over 80 lessons so far with Yiela. I started with zero knowledge except for some tone and loan word knowledge from Vietnamese . And after half a year I'm not only starting to pick up pronounciation and basic grammar but am able to get a good grasp on reading characters. She's always punctual and supportive and has a good sense of went to progress through each lesson or hang back and improve on the current subject matter or revisit something that may have slipped your mind. Will always explain answers to questions you may want to ask. Very satisfied and happy to have her as a great teacher.

Incredible teacher. Sometimes it's hard to study a new language FangFang makes it easy she does the class so easy even the mistakes that you can make feel like nothing. She also explain things perfectly 10/10

Yiela Lao Shi was kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. We set goals during this first session and went straight to work, focusing on my pronunciation and vocabulary. The conversation also flowed smoothly. I am very thankful with the class and am looking forward to future classes.

I had my first lesson with Fangfang today and I can't recommend her enough! Like a lot of people, I was super nervous about trying to speak Chinese for the first time. She was super friendly and patient, and very encouraging even if I made a mistake. Even from the first lesson I feel like I got a lot of experience out of it. Just an overall awesome teacher.

Fangfang is a warm and enthusiastic teacher who brings a lot of positive energy to every lesson. She was punctual and taught for the full 60 minutes. Her great sense of humor and friendly nature made the conversation feel effortless—there were no awkward silences, just natural flow. She came well-prepared with an interesting article comparing Taiwanese and New Zealand students, sparking meaningful discussion. I especially appreciated how she recorded all the new vocabulary as an mp3, making it easy to review and hear authentic Taiwanese pronunciation. The lesson had the perfect level of challenge: engaging enough to push me, but never overwhelming. We even practiced pronouncing words together, which helped fine-tune my speaking. Highly recommended if you want a motivating and fun way to improve your Chinese!
