Jane Liu

If you're looking for an easygoing, adaptable Mandarin teacher, Jane is your girl! As an American-born Taiwanese person who grew up learning and speaking Mandarin but lack adult-level vocabulary and modern understanding of Taiwanese society, I signed up for Jane's classes to help me up-level my Mandarin vocabulary, particularly related to everyday activities and common encounters (i.e., restaurants, coffee shops, transportation) so that I can feel confident the next time I'm back in the motherland. I chose Jane because I wanted someone who has a more worldly view as well, who is able to understand and bridge cultures. Since Jane has lived abroad before and is extremely outgoing and friendly, I felt we would get along well, and we do. I definitely recommend Jane if you're looking to level up your Mandarin with someone who is friendly, patient, and knowledgable!

I'm glad to share my experience with Jane, my Chinese teacher. In her classes, Jane skilfully combines conversation practice with structured textbook lessons. She takes her time to go through everything in the book and the exercises, which has helped me to remember new words better. I like that she writes down words I don't know so I can practise in my spare time and/or even make up my own example sentences which Jane helps me to correct in our next lesson. Jane also gives me homework, which I find really helpful. Her way of teaching is clear and works well. I'm very happy with the way Jane teaches and my Chinese has improved a lot thanks to her.

Attending Jane’s conversational Mandarin classes has been a great experience. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She’s an amazing tutor for anyone who’s learning Mandarin, especially students who are very shy to speak a foreign language🤣. I appreciate that no matter how badly stuck I am when forming a sentence in Mandarin, Jane will always patiently and encouragingly help me find the right words. Overall, I’d give Jane a Taiwanese Mandarin tutor score of 5 bobas out of 5! 🧋🧋🧋🧋🧋

Jane's a rare blend of professional and casual. She takes the lesson seriously but with a lighthearted energy that makes it actually fun and relevant.

Thank you Jane Laoshi for adapting my class today to my trip! Learned some very useful Vocab

Thank you Jane for this introduction class. She already identified some common mistakes I was making, while keeping the session fun and interesting. Looking forward to the next session.
