Teacher YangYang is amazing! Like many heritage- and heritage-adjacent Chinese speakers, I have been speaking Chinese since I was young, but have long struggled with feeling like my language was stuck at a child’s level and register. Due to life changes, I have recently been motivated to clean up my Chinese, and study for the HSK 7-9 exam. 秧秧老师 is experienced at teaching advanced Chinese, and is very familiar with the requirements at the HSK 7-9 level. Through her instruction, I finally feel empowered to speak and write Chinese with grown-up vocabulary and formal register. She provides highly detailed feedback, targeted assignments, and approaches teaching with resourcefulness and creativity: our study materials have ranged from podcasts about modern culture to The Analects. Thanks to 秧秧老师’s guidance, I am better prepared for my exam, but more importantly, feeling more confident and inspired about my Chinese than ever. I cannot recommend her enough. 谢谢老师！

Teacher YangYang is a very good teacher, and it is very comfortable to work with her. She treats people warmly and thoughtfully, patiently and meticulously, and is full of empathy. In class, we actively communicate in Chinese. She can always accurately point out the shortcomings in my spoken language. The homework she arranged was also very helpful. She always gives me encouragement and praise. Thank you Teacher YangYang for creating such a peaceful and friendly teaching environment! YangYang老师是一位非常优秀的老师，与她共事令人感到十分舒心。她待人热情周到，耐心细致，且富有同理心。课堂上，我们积极用中文交流。她总能准确地指出我口语中的不足之处。她布置的作业也很有帮助。她总是给予我鼓励和赞美。感谢YangYang老师营造了如此平和而友善的教学环境！

YangYang is great! She has a great vibrant personality and shows up to class with prepared materials. She also checks up at the end of class asking if I liked the format and if I would like to learn a different way

An excellent teacher — highly professional and dedicated. The classes were always conducted in a fun and highly informative manner. She helped me prepare for HSK 7–9, and it's really hard to find a teacher like her these days. Many thanks!

Great class with clearly fixed targets. Although the start was a bit tricky, by the end I felt much more confident with the content, so the materials and teaching methods are very effective!
