Teacher Yan truly has a lovely, gentle demeanor with my children as well as a very professional approach to assessing my children's Mandarin speaking skills. I most appreciate that she has really encouraged/gently prompted more verbal practice than other teachers we have worked with. Thank you Teacher Yan!

She is fantastic with young kids, and my 8yo thought the lesson was super fun. She spoke NO English to my child and conducted the entire lesson in Chinese, which was fantastic (my child has a few years of Chinese learning so I really wanted her to have some extra practice with a native speaker.)
