Hi everyone! I am Karen, a native mandarin speaker from China. I have been teaching Chinese to foreigners and locals for more than10 years. I have experience in teaching students with diverse cultures and backgrounds. To be a good language teacher not only needs to have professional teaching skills, but also must be a patient listener,enthusiastic motivator,and empathetic colleague. My optimistic and energetic personality helps me.

I enjoyed the session with Karen a lot!! She is very nice and friendly, speaks very clearly, and her tones are also very understandable. She adapted her speaking pace so that I could understand everything she said. As we spoke, Karen gave me feedback and corrected my tones and words of choice, and after the class, she sent me a pdf file with the words and sentences I didn't know. The conversation flowed smoothly and time flew by! I think Karen is going to be of great help to my Chinese. Looking forward to the next session!!

Karen老师 is an excellent teacher! She is fun and energetic, but also very patient. She was well-prepared for every class, and was genuinely interested in helping me improve. After every few sessions, she asked for feedback, to make sure the next sessions would be aligned with my goals. The classes were also fun and informative, and after each one, she shared some notes for me to review. I learnt a lot from Karen, and can strongly recommend her classes!
