Hello! I’m Ryan Higgins, and I’m so glad you decided to check out my profile!
For the past 18 years, I’ve been lucky enough to live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world—Guilin, China. I moved here in 2007 without knowing any Chinese, but fast forward to today, and I have a wonderful family, a job I’m truly passionate about, and yes, I can speak Chinese.
In my spare time, I love spending time with my family, reading, hanging out with my daughter, and playing with our cat, Coco (she sometimes makes a cameo in our lessons!).
I LOVE meeting new people, and I’m excited to get to know you, hear your story, and learn about your unique experiences!

Moi en tant que professeur
My passion for teaching stems from a love of language and culture, inspired by my high school friendships with exchange students. I was fascinated by their cultures and languages and tried, though largely unsuccessfully, to learn them all.
My methods are influenced by the groundbreaking work of Mike Long in Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) and backed by the latest research in Second Language Acquisition (SLA). Your Personalized Learning Plan will help you build confidence, fluency, and real-world skills, empowering you to thrive in business, education, and beyond.
You are not alone on this journey! I am here to guide you to success!
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
Research in Second Language Acquisition overwhelmingly shows that personalized, task-based learning plans tailored to the unique needs of a learner are far superior to anything found in a textbook or syllabus based on a sequence of grammatical structures.
My lessons are 100% personalized to YOUR needs and goals. There are no "generic" lessons in your learning plan. Each lesson is designed based on your needs analysis, focusing on language, cultural contexts, and skills you need to succeed.
I appreciate your investment, time, and energy and want to see you make the most of this opportunity. Together, we will find the success you’ve been searching for!

Every time I have a class with Ryan, time seems to fly by. He is very patient and often encourages me, which makes me more and more relaxed and enjoy the English class.

The first time I attended Ryan's class, I was infected by his enthusiasm. He was very patient and good at guiding me to express some content. He would also provide reasonable plans based on my own situation. I'm looking forward to the next class.

I really enjoy Ryan's English class. To make sure I can understand him, he speaks very slowly and uses very simple words. Although I've only had one class, I feel less scared to speak English than I was at the beginning. I'm looking forward to every class that follows.

I‘m really exited during the lesson! The lesson was well-structured and with a lot of useful information. In addition, I can communicate with my teacher about language acquisition and linguistics which we both interested in! This is a perfect trial lesson. I’m looking forward to next meeting!
