I run private lessons, where all levels are welcome. But if you’re a total beginner then I offer basic classes to help you find the way to get into it.

I develop diverse methods of teaching for the students. For the around 5-8 years old kids, I would like to set certain games to play with them, thereby the kids can learn the new language during the interaction and communication. In this way, different media, like color pictures, puppets, or storybooks are essential to make the course very attractive. For the teenager or advanced students, a structuralized teaching content based on scenarios or textbook could help the students to develop their language capacity efficiently in different aspects – listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Besides, I would like to give a deeper perspective for the Chinese- not only learning the language from the textbooks, but also the knowledge of the language, the culture, and the literature.

Also, based on your need and situation, we choose different textbooks and make a personal teaching plan for you.

First, immersion. Immerse yourself in Chinese language and culture from day one! Through practical exercises, stimulating conversations and exciting cultural activities, you will quickly be immersed in an authentic Chinese environment.

Role plays, debates, language challenges - everything is designed to encourage you to actively participate and develop your language skills in a dynamic way.

Finally, fun! Learning Chinese doesn't have to be boring or monotonous. With me, each class is an adventure full of surprises and discoveries. Games, fun activities, songs and even humorous anecdotes are there to make your learning as fun as it is productive.

My Mathematics Classroom and Teaching Philosophy

My classroom is a world filled with numbers and shapes. I teach Algebra and Geometry—subjects that combine the rigor of logical reasoning with the creativity of spatial imagination. In Algebra, we explore equation solving and the behavior of functions; in Geometry, we tell stories through shapes and uncover patterns through theorems.

I believe that mathematics is not just a subject, but a way of thinking. My teaching philosophy is to help students learn by understanding, think through problem-solving, and gain confidence from their progress. I encourage students to ask questions and try different approaches without fear of making mistakes, because mistakes are often the starting point of real learning.

In class, I use examples from everyday life to make abstract concepts more relatable—like explaining parabolas through the arc of a ball in motion or demonstrating symmetry with paper folding. I want students to realize that mathematics is not merely a tool for exams, but a key to observing and understanding the world.

For me, the ultimate goal of math education is not to have students memorize countless formulas, but to help them develop the analytical mindset and problem-solving courage to face challenges. That is the reason I walk into my classroom each day—to guide them to not only “do math,” but to truly “think mathematically.”

Are you an adult learner aiming to use Chinese in real-life scenarios—whether for HSK exams, work meetings, or business communication? This course is designed to turn your Chinese skills into practical, usable tools.
As a CTCSOL-certified tutor with 2 years of 1-on-1 teaching experience, I focus on:
HSK preparation (Levels 1-5): Targeted practice for listening, reading, and writing (e.g., filling out forms, understanding daily conversations, passing HSK exams efficiently).
Business Chinese: Real workplace scenarios (e.g., introducing yourself in meetings, negotiating prices, writing professional emails, and making business calls).
Conversational fluency: Quick, natural phrases for daily/business interactions (no more memorizing useless vocabulary!).
Lessons are 100% customized to your goals: If you need to prepare for an HSK test next month, we’ll focus on exam skills. If you have a business trip to China, we’ll practice negotiation and small talk.
By the end of each lesson, you’ll walk away with phrases you can use immediately—no vague theory, just practical progress.
Let’s turn your Chinese learning into tangible results!

Chinese is an essential tool for expressing oneself and understanding the world. I offer comprehensive instruction, from basic Pinyin, Zhuyin, and Chinese character writing to advanced reading comprehension and essay writing skills, while also strengthening oral expression and listening comprehension. Learning Chinese not only improves academic performance but also cultivates logical thinking and confidence, laying a solid foundation for future learning of other subjects.

I will impart native speaker learning methods through engaging and relatable cultural sharing.

If you need help to improve your math, physics or Chinese, no matter for daily life or for your academic study from primary school to bachelor, I would be more than happy to help. After years of private teaching during my two master's studies, I learnt how to deliver the information in a light and memorable way. In my class, of course we will go through the theories and practices together, but more importantly, you will exercise on the way of thinking and have a newer view on the subjects, which is even more important than the knowledge in a long way. The class won't be exhausting as your extra chance of learning, but will make you naturally try to understand and remember.
