Stacey 张老师

Comme toujours, j'ai passé un très bon moment en cours de chinois. Cela me mets de bonne humeur pour toute la journée. Stacey mene le cours de façon organisée et les temps de conversation libre sont toujours un très bon exercice où je me sens à l'aise pour simplement parler chinois sans redouter de faire des erreurs. Elle adapte également le cours pour répondre à mes questions (je crois que j'ai compris les nuances du 要, et j'ai eu un déclic pour la prononciation des sh/zh/ch !). Merci encore et à la semaine prochaine ! Bon voyage !

Stacey is so good at making the lesson feel easy and fun while keeping a focus on grammar and vocabulary. I can’t understate how worthwhile these lessons are. It’s like getting the value of several college professors in one person and all one-on-one private lessons. Even though I struggle and search for words every 3 seconds, she keeps me engaged and speaking. She clarifies grammar/vocab points both verbally and through notes she shares with you so you can always review what you learned in past lessons. For my lessons, she only speaks in Chinese, but she is able to speak perfect English at an academic level. This means that she is able to understand the English logic behind my attempts at constructing a Chinese sentence. She then takes my poorly constructed Chinese sentence and repeats it with the correct grammar and vocabulary. I feel like 1 hour with her is like spending a week in a college class. She will make you feel like you’re getting your money’s worth and then some.

I almost never leave comments but I'll do one here. Stacey is probably the best language teacher I've had for any language, ever. She reviews vocabulary, gives various sentences, understands my horrible Chinese, and explains complicated grammar so much better than anyone I've ever seen. Her knowledge of English is incredible and that's why I think she can explain. nuances of grammar and discern how to convey the idea on a native level rather than just use the Google translate word or even just stop with 1 example. Because I've learned multiple languages, I think I have a better understanding of how to ask about a wide variety of contexts to make sure that I *really* understand how to use it, and Stacey gets it. She is an incredible teacher and you would be lucky to have her. I recommend her to all my friends all the time.

张老师 (Stacey) is an amazing teacher. I can't say enough good things about her. I feel like she's taking my Mandarin speaking and listening skills to new levels.

Stacey is a wonderful teacher. She's friendly, patient, and clearly enunciates the Mandarin for a student at my level. We spent the entire time speaking in Mandarin - even though I'm only in the early lessons of HSK 2 level. That would normally intimidate me and make me feel stressed. But it's done in a way that fills the blanks in my vocabulary as she types those words into a shared Google Doc so I can learn on the fly, and incorporate that new vocabulary into our conversation. It's really a great way to learn. I really enjoyed the lesson.

Stacey is not only a good teacher, but she is also a very perceptive person who has a lot of interesting things to say whenever I we have free discussions in Chinese.
