Me as a Teacher

My lessons & teaching style

私のレッスンでは、みなさんの希望に応じて、標準語と広東語の日常会話、文法、リーディング、ライティングを教えます。ただ会話をするだけでも良いです。我的教学风格比较轻松愉快，同时也着重于正确中文语法的使用。我还可以教你如何写文章和商务用语，邮件等。如果你有对成语，古诗有兴趣，我们也可以展开讨论，这些都是我最喜欢的中国文化。 In my lessons, I'll teach you daily conversations and grammar in a fun casual way. I will provide assistance to you in improving your writing and help with business Chinese and email writing. If you are interested in idioms and Chinese poems, we can also discuss them in my class. These are my favorite Chinese cultures.

Just had an excellent chat in Mandarin with Emma! She is a lovely person and was very willing to help with any words or phrases I didn't know. She made me feel at ease about speaking and making mistakes and learning! Highly recommended!

Had a great conversation with Emma about tech companies, the current financial downturn, and how financial shadiness on the part of one small coffee chain is a microcosm of much broader corporate corruption. Emma was a great conversation partner the whole time, correcting my grammar and vocabulary use without ever being overwhelming, offering suggestions from her own broad experience with Chinese-English business translation work. Awesome class!
