Hi guys. My name is Anthony and my Chinese name is Kang kang. Thank you for reading my profile. I have been taking lessons as a student on italki since 2016 with more than 500 lessons finished. So I know exactly what it feels like to learn another language and what makes a good teacher. I like to act as a facilitator, providing opportunities for the student to talk, and offering regular corrections, if that's what the student needs. I enjoy listening as much as possible, to allow the student to gain confidence in speaking skills. Meeting students is an honor and pleasure.

As a Language teacher myself, I really love Anthony’s interactive and fun approach to giving classes. With him I really learn how to express myself and speak speak speak!! He is super attentive, motivating, patient and fun. There’s not a single boring moment in class and he gives a lot of feedback regarding grammar and speaking!

Anthony is a great teacher for my 9-year-old daughter. He uses fun games to keep her engaged, and his choice of Mandarin cartoons and songs are age-appropriate and fun. She has tried many Mandarin teachers on italki, and Anthony is the best at making my shy daughter talk. Thank you Anthony! We are grateful!

The pronunciation lesson was very helpful! I was preparing to recite a text for a recitation competition as a beginner, so I was looking for very detailed feedback, and Teacher Anthony provided this. I really appreciated that he did not have a "good enough" attitude; he was patient in helping me to improve my pronunciation of words, phrases, and sentences. The short conversation we had was good extra practice.

Anthony has really helped me feel more confident in my speaking and listening skills. He is a kind, flexible teacher who works to find interesting conversation topics and activities that make speaking practice fun. He always takes notes during lessons so you can reference any new words you learned that day. And if you're interested in taking the HSK, he also has materials to review HSK vocabulary and grammar. I'd highly recommend Anthony if you're looking for a supportive teacher to help grow your listening and speaking abilities.

I am a professor in Applied Linguistics, Chinese is my 9th language. One of my central jobs is foreign language teacher training and language teaching methodology. I would like to strongly recommend Kang Kang, he is not academically trained, but instinctively an excellent language instructor. His classes are a joy. We have worked together daily for over 2 years, now over 420 lessons and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!!!

This teacher listens well to what you have to say and tries his best to connect with you and build on what you have said. Whenever I got a word wrong or phrase wrong, he would always correct me, and make sure I understand that my way of saying it was wrong, and what the right way of saying it is.
