Helen Tian

I love that Helen always encourages me to speak more Chinese. During class we follow a textbook but we also have conversations about different topics. She also incorporates new vocabulary. I enjoy her classes a lot and I always learn something new in each class. For those of you that also study writing, Helen knows a lot about characters and how they are formed and their meaning.

I've started learning Mandarin as an absolute beginner and thanks to Helen, I haven't found it at all daunting. I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to learn with a teacher like Helen. She's knowledgeable, warm and encouraging. I look forward to learning a lot with her support. I can't recommend her highly enough.

I've been studying Chinese with Helen for a year or more and I highly recommend her. Class is always fun but Helen is also structured and has a disciplined approach that combines progressing while also constantly reviewing and correcting. It's highly effective and I've gone from no knowledge of Chinese to using the language at work to communicate with clients. 海伦，万分感谢你非常好的合作！

Encouraging teacher!
