Tara is my go-to for everything! Whether I am preparing for a test (HSK2/HSKK), need help with my homework for my group class, or want her to help me put together a quality introduction in Mandarin for an Instagram reel ~> She is there to help and adjust her teaching method to fit my needs! Always grateful I was able to find her:)

I wholeheartedly recommend Teacher Tara. She is not just experienced, kind, encouraging and well-prepared, but also fits each lesson to the student's level and needs. She can slow down/speed up/try a different approach during the lesson to help the student better understand, which is a true sign of a capable and empathetic teacher. My daughter loves to have lessons with Teacher Tara!

Tara is an excellent teacher. She even prepared materials for our lesson and she always did a great job preparing a PDF with new vocabulary and sent it to me after each lesson. She helped me meet my language goal. The Italki platform, however, could use a lot of improvement. The size of the font is much too small. Also, the app/platform is also poorly organized and it is hard to find things.

Tara is an excellent tutor. My teenager daughter (even she isn't an easy going person, to say the truth) respects her, enjoys the lessons with Tara and she doesn't try to find reasons to escape!

Tara is a very patient and engaged teacher with my 13yo son learning Mandarin from scratch. (He just completed lesson 15 with her) She uses appropriate vocabulary/translations for his learning level. Highly recommend Miss Tara!

No matter what, Tara always adapts to what I need and she's always willing to go the extra step to help me. I've always left her lessons feeling confident and like I've just levelled up my skills.
