❀ Effective ❀ Professional ❀ Relaxed I am a native speaker and live in South of China. I was a professional Chinese teacher in a Primary school since I graduated from university, I love my students. Later, I had an opportunity to work with many foreign colleagues in a international trade company, they always asked me to teach them Chinese, so here I am, back as a teacher, my students are from all over the world. I really enjoy being a Chinese teacher. I will share what I know with my students in order to help them learn Chinese better. I love to travel and sports. I am really good at singing songs. If you like Chinese, join me. Discount for all students.

Hong Li is an extremely knowledgeable in all facets of culture, history, economics, and social issues. Therefore, during her lesson she introduces her student to a plethora of new vocabulary, and engages the student in a series of question and answer discussions, I highly recommend her to anyone wishing to improve or increase their language learning skills.

My first class with Hong Laoshi was one the best classes I've had on iTalki. Hong Laoshi not only is very well prepared with teaching materials and a willingness to adapt to her students' Chinese level, but perhaps more importantly, she makes a consistent effort during the class to keep the conversation going and ensuring you are actively learning the entire time you talk to her. I look forward to taking more classes with her!

Teacher Maggie has been an excellent teacher, providing me invaluable support and guidance throughout my learning journey. Her teaching methods are incredibly effective, and she possesses a remarkable ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and understandable way. What truly sets her apart is her dedication to pushing me to learn quickly. She strikes the perfect balance between challenging me and providing necessary encouragement. I have been amazed at the rapid progress I have made under her tutelage. Her patience, enthusiasm, and genuine passion for teaching have made the learning experience not only productive, but also enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a dedicated and effective language teacher. Her expertise and commitment to me has been exceptional. I also enjoy the fun ways she helps me learn by creating games to make learning Chinese characters more fun and engaging .

Excellent lesson and Amazing teacher! In class, we saw my homework where Maggie gave corrections explaining what was wrong. Then, we made some speaking about the topic of success giving our points of view, read three texts and Maggie asked me some questions to see if I have understood them. So, today was another comprehensive lesson which include all the skills. As usual, Maggie is punctual and organized with the activies to do: she is skillful and she exactly knows what she has to do or say during the class. In addition, she provides great feedback to let me know my progress and she is always at the student's disposa if he need something. Thanks to Maggie, my Chinese is getting better every day. She is an excellent Chinese teacher, but also a lovely and precious person. Her lessons are valuable as ten stars lesson. Great experience. 我们下个星期见面 ❤️

Maggie is an excellent and creative teacher. For example, tonight she had a matching vocab prepared that she created using GenerativeAI. Very fun and engaging activity!

It is a great pleasure having Hóng Lì as a teacher! As I will go to China in a few weeks time, I asked her to teach me important phrases for travel. Her teaching methods greatly help me to practice speaking Mandarin during the classes and let me understand sentence structures, grammar etc. easily. Hóng Lì is always very prepared and has a well structured approach. At the same time, she is very flexible when I have specific questions. She is a very kind person and I can really recommend her as a teacher.
