Grace Yu (Adult/kid)

Two of my children have learned from Teacher Grace for 4 years now. They love her, and she has sparked in them a passion for Chinese. She is always encouraging and patient, and uses their interests to motivate them. She is always very conscientious, preparing in advance and sending us notes (eg slides and quizzes) after. Thank you Teacher Grace!! 😍😍😍

I had the pleasure of studying with Grace as my online Chinese teacher for 1 hour. I cannot recommend Grace enough for anyone looking to learn Mandarin. From the moment I started my first lesson with Grace, I knew that I had made the right choice. Grace is an exceptional teacher with a passion for teaching Chinese to non-native speakers. Her teaching style is very student-centered, which means that they take the time to get to know their students and tailor their lessons to their individual needs. She is patient, kind, and always willing to go the extra mile to help their students succeed. One thing I particularly appreciated about Grace is her ability to explain complex Chinese grammar concepts in a way that is easy to understand. She is great at breaking down difficult topics into manageable pieces, which helped me to understand the language more effectively. Her lessons were always well-prepared, and she provided me with a lot of useful materials to practice with outside of class.

Outstanding experience as always!

I have been learning with Grace for nearly 3 years now! I enjoy so much my classes with Grace because it is such a good mix of conversational talk and more formal grammar/vocabulary explanation based on textbooks. Grace is curious, enthusiastic and extremely encouraging. I have definitely improved so much with her!

For today's lesson, Grace picked an interesting topic for us to discuss. I wrote some notes before class and then we discussed the topic over the lesson. I learned lots of new words and grammar, and felt like I got a lot of practice speaking with feedback. I love her teaching methods. Awesome!

It was truly a pleasure to have our Chinese class again after a long time. I had been looking forward to it, and it did not disappoint. Your teaching style is always engaging and thoughtful. I really appreciate the way you explain vocabulary with clear, real-life examples. Even after a break, you made it easy for me to get back into the rhythm of learning. The pacing of the lesson was just right — not too fast, not too slow. You always check in to make sure I understand before moving on. I liked how you incorporated both speaking and listening practice in a balanced way. The dialogue exercises were especially helpful for refreshing my memory. You create a friendly, low-pressure atmosphere that builds my confidence. Your feedback is always kind but constructive, which motivates me to improve. I also enjoyed the small cultural insights you included during the lesson. Thank you for being so patient and encouraging throughout the session. Looking forward to the next class already!
