My lessons are relaxing and flexible. Students are welcome to provide their own study materials. I select and offer suitable learning materials (and sometimes I make my own exercises and slides) for each individual student. Optional homework is also available after class for review and preview.

I've been a language learner for as long as I can remember. Not only do I speak Chinese and English at a bilingual level, but I also know how to teach precisely because I have first-hand experience in language acquisition as well as some linguistics training. In other words, I'm your teacher as much as I'm your companion in your learning journey. I've been there and understand what the difficulties are when learning a foreign language systematically from scratch, especially when it's very different from one's L1 (mother tongue). I'd be honored and delighted to help you improve and reach your goal!

中文是我的母语，但我不仅会说中文，我也会教中文。我在美国读大学期间，接受过语言学的训练，可以帮忙纠正您的发音，并且给出系统学习的建议。

因为我出生成长在上海，我也会说上海话。如果您想去上海旅游或者工作，我也可以帮助您最大程度适应并享受生活！

我正在准备今年九月的国际对外汉语教师资格考试（CTCSOL）。
