As a devoted full-time Mandarin tutor and native speaker, I am dedicated to assisting you in achieving your language objectives promptly and efficiently. With extensive experience teaching students of all ages and proficiency levels, spanning from nursery to primary, secondary, international schools, and adults, I am well-versed in the MOE, IGCSE (second language and foreign language), and IB Chinese B syllabi.

Additionally I tailor my teaching methods to meet your individual requirements, with a proven track record of enhancing my students' grades by 1 to 2 levels within a mere four to six months. My particular expertise lies in composition writing and aiding students in character retention.

What distinguishes my approach is its dynamic and engaging nature. Rather than relying solely on textbooks, I incorporate a diverse range of resources, including games, films, art and craft, videos, songs, and real-life scenarios, to create an enjoyable and interactive Chinese learning experience.

Vocabulary: Expand your vocabulary with relevant and useful words and phrases
