My lessons & teaching style
☀️ Building Your Confidence
I like to slow down the conversation, and try to make my students comfortable with listening, comprehending, and then speaking Chinese.
☀️ Making It Fun
You will learn authentic Chinese while having fun. I will incorporate many different elements into the lessons, including reading, videos, music, games, quizzes, free talk, etc.
☀️ Keeping Motivated
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going. Let`s set a goal and make a learning plan together!

KK is by far the best Mandarin teacher I have had. Incredibly supportive, patient and tentative throughout every lesson. If you haven't already met her, I highly recommend having her support you on your language learning journey !

刘小优 is amazingly patient with my beginner level vocabulary and pronunciation. She's very creative and intuitive in dynamically creating a conversation, suited to my learning level, where I can practice both speaking and listening to Mandarin. I was impressed by her.
