OMG Joanna has been one of the best instructors I have had. Today was our last class together and I already miss her. I totally recommend her 100%. Thank you for everything.

Joanna is a lovely teacher. She has perfectly adapted the lessons to my level and goals. I have been very nervous to speak Chinese, but in her lessons she is very inviting and makes me more confident to speak Chinese. When I make mistakes, she gracefully corrects them. I am also thankful she follows my request of conducting the lesson fully in Chinese. Thank you!

Joanna is an amazing teacher! She is extremely patient and attentive, and our conversations are always interesting, despite my lack of fluency. She provides enough structure to push me forward, and she notices and adapts our lessons to my weaknesses.

I've taken quite a few lessons with Johanna Qin, and I always appreciate how the lesson starts off with conversational Chinese and how her teaching style is flexible, allowing me to study and learn texts I'm interested in. In addition, she clearly explains differences between similar grammar points in Chinese and, if necessary, in English. The conversational practice has markedly improved my speaking ability in Chinese. For context I study Chinese at university, and my teachers complemented my increase in conversational fluency, which I attribute to taking these lessons. Overall, I enjoy the flexibility with what I study, the clear explanation of grammar points, and the conversational (and listening) practice.

Joanna is an exellent teacher. She arrives at the lesson prepared with powerpoint, which she uses for examples and providing many opportunities to practice and engage with the lesson. Joanna is very good at helping with pronounciation, focussing on what I struggle with and breaking it down to make it easier to learn.

Excellent teacher. I'm an absolute beginner, and Joanna is an experienced teacher with a plan and structure to introduce the language. I appreciate her patience and encouragement.
