Hi, I'm Wella from Xi'an, China, where the famous terracotta warriors from! I'm a native Chinese speaker with great passion on language. I'm a freelance English-Chinese interpreter/translator and a freelance photographer as well. I love life which always warms me and surprises me. Sharing and disseminating Chinese culture and language is always where my passion is, and where my responsibility is as a language worker. I'd like to help more people learn practical Mandarin from basis to professional, and feel the fun of it.
大家好,我叫薇薇,来自中国古城西安。我是一名自由英汉口笔译员,也是一名自由写真摄影师,我热爱生活,有很多兴趣爱好,语言就是其中之一。我喜欢和不同的人打交道,而且作为一名语言工作者,我也希望能够帮助到很多希望学习汉语的人从头了解汉语的魅力,并快乐学习,最终达到你们想要的目标。
Me as a Teacher
I‘ve been working as a local custom and culture disseminator for two years, teaching people from different countries how to do Chinese calligraphy, how to appreciate Chinese water-ink paintings and how to better understand Chinese culture. I'm now a freelance English-Chinese interpreter and translator, participating different kinds of international meetings and offering language service for government officials, entrepreneurs and business groups.
我曾经担任过两年陕西文化风俗讲解员与传播人员,为世界各地的游客进行教学,带他们学习中国书法,赏析中国水墨画,以及更好地了解中国文化。目前是一名自由英汉口笔译员,为各国政府领导、官员以及企业人员提供翻译服务。
My lessons & teaching style
I am a person with humor and endearing characteristic, I can teach Mandarin to people from small kids to office workers and to professionals, we'll have many laugh without feeling bored.

Wella was really kind and funny. I enjoyed meeting her for our first lesson and trying my best to do a self introduction (自我介绍). She adapted to my speaking style and helped me with words I don't know while still continuing the conversation. Speak again next time! ^o^

Wella is an awesome teacher! Her lessons are packed with value and I have a lot to study between lessons - which I love. She was very encouraging and personalized the phrases we were working on - for example my hairless cat made an appearance in our lesson and she taught me how to talk about my pets! I loved the personalization. Wella speaks very good English as well which is incredibly helpful for me because I can ask her questions about what I am learning and her answers are very clear and help me understand and contextualize the lesson! I can't wait to continue with her!

我很喜欢学习中文,因为我有一位精彩老师。我很开心上课。
I had another wonderful class with Wella. She is well-prepared for our lessons, very thoughtful and patient with my many mistakes. Our classes focus on conversational roleplays, which I found to be very practical and engaging. I am looking forward to my next class! 谢谢您, 薇薇!

Wella is the absolute best. I am still a beginner but so far I know she is definitely going to take me to a good level in a very good pace. She is kind and listens. She friendly and fun, though, so all the class is really a nice experience. And, again, she has very good English. Thank you, Wella !
