My daughter won first for the Americas at the Chinese Bridge Chinese Proficiency Competition held in Kunming, China. Thank you Patrick for all the hard work and patience you've put in over the years teaching her and her brothers.

It was great having a mini mandarin course with Patrick. I appreciate the variety of media used throughout the lessons.

Over seven months, I worked with Patrick almost every week to supplement intensive Chinese language courses. We didn’t use a specific textbook. Instead, we mostly had work-specific conversations focused on my job requirements. Classes with Patrick offered two special benefits: 1. He very ably identified my level of speaking ability, making his speech speed and vocabulary level understandable while still challenging me to do more. Having worked with dozens of language teachers, I know this is a very rare and valuable skill. 2. He has charisma that makes talking with him engaging while covering a wide variety of subjects, including work-related topics. Hour-long courses definitely flew by. I really enjoyed my time working with Patrick, and I think our classes will contribute to my ability to live and work in China in the near future.

I really like Patrick´s class, I have the opportunity to practice a lot my speaking/pronunciation and talk about a lot of different topics in chinese, not only "book situations". My reading skills have also improved thanks to Patrick, who has the patience of a saint as this has always been a weak point in my chinese learning.

Patrick is a great teacher. He is very engaged and focused throughout the lesson. He tailors the lesson according to my level. The lessons are varied and interesting. He provides very useful material.
