Whether your goal is fluency or exam success, I'm here to guide and support you!

المستوى التعليمي
My research in linguistics, particularly in Second Language Acquisition (SLA), focused on analysing how linguistic distances impact language learning abilities among multilingual. These experiences have deepened my understanding of language learning processes, allowing me to tailor teaching methods that cater to learners' diverse linguistic backgrounds. As a Mandarin teacher, this equips me with the ability to create targeted, effective lesson plans that facilitate faster and more intuitive learning for my students, grounded in evidence-based practices.
الخبرة / المؤهلات
I’ve been teaching and tutoring languages since middle school, tailoring my lessons to a variety of goals, such as preparing for language exams (HSK), fostering cultural interest, and supporting business communication. My journey as an educator began with my first student, an American expat in mainland China, who initially struggled with Mandarin grammar and tones. Through dedicated practice, he overcame these challenges and eventually gained the confidence to navigate daily life using only Mandarin. I also have experience teaching K-6 students, which strengthened my understanding of adapting methods to different learning levels.

I prefer to teach through interactive, engaging lessons that bring the language to life. However, for those with exam goals, structured practice and homework are sometimes necessary. Currently, I am also helping adults who are married to Chinese partners and want to communicate more naturally with their families. Whether your goal is conversational fluency or exam readiness, I’m here to guide you on your language journey!

Hi, I'm Leyi. Born and grow up in mainland China, but I have been moving around the world. I have been teaching Mandarin for six years, and I started teaching Mandarin Chinese when I was in high school to kindergarteners/grade-school students/adults in the US. I am chatty, effective, and patient, so most of my students like me (or I think so? hahaha). Because I have experience with linguistics as a subject and was exposed to many languages while growing up, I like to use students' first and second language (language-specific), my academic, and language knowledge to have personalised study plans for my students. I do not believe in a grammar-focused study plan, and I hope my students can learn the things they want (one student particularly wanted to learn Chinese poetry, which meant teaching him modern Chinese syntax or rhyme would not make sense). Some of my students felt they were more prepared when they went on exchange. In terms of characters learning (both simplified and traditional), I also would re-arrange the plans (ex. an exam-focused plan would contain a denser portion of character learning than a person who just wants to watch C-drama ).
