Really like working with Mark. Aside from clearly talking and explaining the pronunciation and grammar, it's also possible to discuss current Chinese culture and media, which I appreciate. I think it's good to learn more about the country and its culture as it makes learning Chinese easier.

Mark was incredible. Highly recommend for beginner and advanced

I had a great experience learning beginner Mandarin with this teacher. They explained everything clearly and made the lesson easy to understand, even when learning completely new concepts. They were patient, encouraging, and always took the time to answer my questions.

Mark does an excellent job of teaching me how to better structure sentences more "authentically" and is super quick to find out how to express the things I want to say in Chinese. I have already improved so much in my speaking especially, and I think it's in part because of how attentive of a teacher Mark is, but also because he's super fun to talk to! I like that I have a job of how I want to structure class, whether it's in a more systemic way or if I want casual conversation. Mark also always solicits feedback on the class and teaching style which I really appreciate. Overall, I think a huge part in being consistent with language learning is to find someone who makes it fun. Mark does just that, and I definitely am glad I decided to start learning from him! Highly recommend!

Had a great history lesson today! Thank you it was quite informative and I learned many new words

I enjoyed my first class with Mark. He explained things well, and I appreciated his attention to detail with my pronunciation of words. He was able to figures areas of growth of improvement for me and explained clearly how I could benefit from his classes.
