Charlotte is an absolutely fantastic teacher!! She custom tailored every lesson to my level and interests. For every lesson she prepared a set of extremely helpful slides with vocabulary, sentence patterns, and dialogues, all beautifully presented with lots of photos and pictures that made the material completely welcoming and accessible. Charlotte's explanations are always crystal clear. Every lesson was fun and extremely productive. Charlotte's wonderful energy and kindness gave me the enthusiasm to fit Chinese studying into my busy life. My Chinese improved dramatically over a fairly short time. If you have the chance to study Chinese with Charlotte, do not pass it up!
