I was born and raised in Guangzhou, a stone’s throw from Hong Kong. I speak both Mandarin&Cantonese with standard accents.
I am passionate about languages, traveling, working out, dancing and food. I'm teaching full-time, I have taught 10k+ classes, meanwhile I'm living&traveling around the world.I've lived in Asia and Europe.
I've been to 30+ countries including Latvia, Iran, Turkey, Mexico, Australia and so on. I've dived, skydived, paraglided and gone for 1.5months long motorcycle trip.
I speak English well so I can explain grammatical questions clearly. I am also learning Spanish and the local languages when I stay there.

Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I like to keep my lesson practical and I can communicate with students in Chinese and English fluently.
- Before our class, I spend some time to learn about your purpose, proficiency level, preferred methods, and prepare the class accordingly.
- In the class, I encourage you to 1. speak Chinese as much as possible, 2. make your own sentences while I correct your pronunciation and gramma, and 3. write them down for future review; and provide you helpful feedback and tips for improvement.
- After the class, I provide you with text, audio, or video materials and assign homework if you wish.

Nicole is always helpful, punctual, patient, and kind. She remembers all kinds of details of our past lessons and knows which words I know (or should know!) and which words will be new.

I'm always impressed with Nicole's openness, friendliness, and ability to clearly explain the nuances of both Mandarin and Cantonese, as well as how they relate to English words when further clarification is needed. Even 90-minute classes always fly by very quickly with Nicole!

Today we did some work from an HSK book and Nicole made sure to point out key vocabulary and grammatical structure used in each text. Her explanations were conducive to my understanding and acquisition of those key points!

Nicole really is the best tutor. Well-prepared, patient, intuitive, and good at explaining things. Over the past year, she has adjusted her teaching approach based on my learning goals as well as my life busy-ness, as we have gone through listening exercises and recordings, homework, and conversation practice.
In all of it, she has calibrated her lessons to the perfect balance of comfort and challenge. And I can tell she cares about her students and takes an interest in their lives.
Cantonese is a hard language and for me, it comes with a lot of personal baggage. The learning process can be sensitive and discouraging without the right tutor, and I've gone through numerous unproductive sessions with other tutors. Nicole really has made it fun, engaging, and most importantly, my Cantonese has improved with her. I can't recommend her highly enough!
