Level Up Your Chinese through Culture & Conversation | 🎙️Host of "Sino-Flare" Podcast
Hello! I am a certified Chinese teacher 🎓(CTCSOL & PSC) with 9 years of experience on italki. Having taught hundreds of students who have since become my friends, I’ve seen firsthand that the most effective way to master Chinese is through meaningful connection and cultural storytelling.
Why learn with me?
🏮Beyond the Textbook: As the creator of the podcast "Sino-flare", I am constantly researching Chinese history, social trends, and cultural nuances. For HSK 3+ learners, our lessons go far beyond grammar; we will dive into current events, societal shifts, and the "why" behind the language.
💻A "Digital Nomad" Approach: I use interactive Google Spreadsheets to track your progress in real-time. This creates a personalized "living dictionary" that we use for active review and quizzes in every session.
🌏Panoramic Perspectives: Having lived and worked in Guangzhou, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Dalian, I offer a unique look at China’s regional diversity—from southern business etiquette to northern coastal lifestyle and local food cultures.
🎙️ Search 'Sino-Flare: Your Go-To Guide for Making Sense of China' on Apple Podcasts or Spotify to hear my cultural stories! Listen to a few episodes to get a feel for my teaching style and insights!
⚠️Note: I specialize in adult education (HSK 3 and above) and do not offer classes for children.

My journey with Stone has been a pleasure. He's willing to help correct essays and offer help both in and out of class--it's clear that he's invested in your entire learning experience, not just your in-lesson experience. He's good-natured and supportive, and will often refer back to things we've previously learned to help cement concepts. I'd recommend trying him out!

Stone is SO much fun. I always am laughing and learning at the same time. He sent me a document to keep record of simple phrases. He keeps me on track when I wander into a different topic, is very patient when I don't understand, tells me not to worry, and explains new words while telling stories. I highly recommend his class! Stone辅导教师把新词汇解释了,把东西出现了,告诉我“别担心” 和如果我逛逛到别的话题的话, 他吸引我回来。他总是给我一些例子。他说:“尽管问我吧!” 谢谢您老师!
