Each session is structured around a practical theme (business, travel, culture, daily life) and allows you to acquire:
• parallel Chinese/English vocabulary
• Useful expressions for everyday communication
• essential cultural reference points
• an introduction to Chinese calligraphy (basics of writing and strokes)
• Measurable progress, tailored to your goals
• the possibility of customizing the course content according to your needs and interests (profession, travel preparation, conversation, etc.)

An ideal format for international professionals, mobile students or language enthusiasts who wish to progress in a practical, modern and cultural way.

About Me
• Native Chinese (Mandarin) teacher with extensive language skills: oral expression, writing, literature, traditional culture, and calligraphy. I also practice 朗诵 (expressive recitation/reading), a discipline that enriches the learning of pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation.

• Having graduated with a bachelor's degree in journalism (in Mandarin) in China and a master's degree in communication (in English) in Hong Kong, I have developed solid linguistic and cultural expertise.

• Over 8 years in international environments in Shanghai, in the advertising (agency), sports, partnerships and events sectors — positions requiring daily use of English and Chinese.

• Experience teaching English to children in France.

• Intermediate level French — I've been happily sticking with it for three years.

• Passionate about languages, cultures, travel and meeting new people, I am a patient, caring teacher, and I love creating dynamic courses tailored to the needs of each student — whether it is Mandarin, English or a cross-learning of the two languages.

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.


I look forward to meeting you.
