Lucy in China

Hands down Lucy is my favorite teacher on italki. I use several teachers on italki but I absolutely love the structure that Lucy provides at every lesson. So far I’ve had 7 lessons with Lucy. At the first lesson, she tested what level I was at. From there, she comes up with new lessons based on my ability. At the start of every class, we review a sentence that contains vocab from the previous lesson. Then we move on to new lessons. Time just flies during our lessons but they are very productive. I take lots of notes and Lucy sends the PowerPoint slides after the lesson. This allows me to review and prepare for the next class. If you want structure and a methodology to learning Mandarin Chinese, I highly recommend Lucy. She is very effective

Lucy is an excellent teacher. She must put so much time into preparing her lessons. She is great at teaching pronunciation, and at making her lessons really interesting and enjoyable.

Great first lesson. Lucy was well prepared and had a good flow to the class.

Lucy 老师是一个非常优秀的老师，认真负责任，对孩子的个性化需求提供专业的指导和帮助，谢谢🙏

I took a 60 minute trial lesson with Teacher Lucy. She came fully prepared with materials at different levels to evaluate my Chinese and quickly adjusted to advanced content after assessing my level. She creates her own materials and is very organized, making her an excellent fit for students who appreciate structured lessons and close guidance, though perhaps less suitable for those who prefer a more independent and flexible study style.

Lucy's class is ideal for someone who prefers learning through a highly structured approach. It is clear that she put a lot of work into her class, and you get some great feedback on pronunciation and easier ways to produce correct Chinese sentences.
