About Me
italki teacher since Feb 26, 2025InterestsReadingMusicArtFoodTravel
My name is Ty and I love learning. I am fascinated by many things and consider myself not only a teacher but a lifelong student. My goal is to keep things interesting, whether that’s traveling to a new country, trying new foods, or learning a new language. I try to combine creativity and an excitement for life with everything I do. In addition to being a professional language teacher I also work as the Director of China Operations for an international media company.Me as a Teacher
I am a professionally trained teacher with a degree in Education. I have had the privilege of teaching at the university level, privately, and for large international corporations. My teaching experience has primarily focused on adult learners, and I am comfortable teaching both beginners and advanced students. One unique advantage I have as a teacher is the ability to communicate in both English and Mandarin Chinese. My extensive experience as both a language instructor and a business executive helps me to utilize many different skills to keep my language classes interesting and current for my students.My lessons & teaching style
I craft my lessons according to the needs of each student and create individualized lessons based on their goals and interests. I am proficient in teaching many aspects of English and can easily adapt my lessons to cater to each student’s needs. I am also very good at identifying areas students need to work on in order to progress. Although I am focused on helping students make measurable improvements, I try to do so in a way that keeps learning fresh, interesting, and enjoyable.My teaching material

Ty is very experienced and is suitable for students who are serious about improving their English, rather than those who just want to chat casually. I especially recommend Chinese students to learn with him

Highly Recommend to Chinese students who want to improve English！The lesson with Ty is one of the BEST on italki! He is super kind, interesting and patient teacher. The talk was so enjoyable and meaningful. He even gave me detailed feedback about some mistakes or sth can be improved which is so necessary for me to know. That's sweet and indeed helpful. Thanks Ty! Look forward to next meeting.
BTW, Ty knows a lot about Chinese culture and even can speak well in Chinese. Pretty cool!
