Hi! I’m Sophie Wu (吴凡), a native Mandarin speaker from China with over 10 years of experience in education, media, and international business. I specialize in creating fun, customized lessons that help learners build confidence in speaking Mandarin — whether you're a complete beginner or looking to polish your fluency for real-life situations, travel, exams (like HSK), or professional communication.
I believe language learning should be joyful, practical, and empowering. My classes blend culture, storytelling, and interactive activities to keep things fresh and meaningful. Book a trial and let’s start your Mandarin journey together!Me as a Teacher
As a Mandarin teacher, I bring patience, creativity, and a strong focus on real communication. I tailor each lesson to your goals — whether you want to pass an HSK exam, improve daily conversation, or prepare for interviews or presentations in Chinese.
I value connection and cultural context in my teaching. You’ll not only learn vocabulary and grammar, but also how to express yourself naturally and confidently in real-life situations. I use a mix of storytelling, visuals, role-play, and even food and travel topics to make learning fun and relevant.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are student-centered, practical, and always tailored to your needs. I take time to understand your learning goals — whether it’s building daily conversation skills, preparing for HSK exams, improving pronunciation, or mastering business Mandarin — and design lessons that are effective and engaging.
You can expect a mix of speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities, with a strong focus on real-life communication. I use tools like slides, dialogues, videos, role-plays, and even songs or cultural topics to keep things dynamic and meaningful.My teaching material
