Hi, I'm Eric, an English pronunciation teacher specializing in helping Mandarin speakers improve their English pronunciation and speaking clarity.
From my 10 years of teaching English in Taiwan, I noticed the same pronunciation difficulties appearing again and again among Chinese-speaking students. Many learners study grammar and vocabulary for years, but still struggle to sound natural or be understood clearly in conversation.
My teaching focuses on developing spoken English as a skill. I help students develop the rhythm, stress, sound connections, and speech habits used by native English speakers.
In my lessons, we work on:
- pronunciation mechanics (tongue, lips, airflow, etc.)
- common problem sounds for Mandarin speakers
- final consonants
- word stress and rhythm
- intonation and word connections
- speaking naturally and confidently
I also provide structured practice materials and exercises to help students continue improving between classes.
My lessons are best suited for:
- Mandarin speakers
- intermediate or advanced English learners
- students who want a North American accent
- students serious about long-term pronunciation improvement
If you’d like to improve your pronunciation, speaking clarity, and confidence in English, feel free to book a trial lesson. I’ll identify some of your main pronunciation issues and show you how we can work on them together.
