About
Hi, I’m Dongni—a native Chinese tutor specializing in high-quality, results-driven language training, designed for both complete beginners and dedicated learners. I also offer Japanese lessons and English as a second language lessons. I focus on helping students build clear, confident communication from the very beginning. Whether you have no prior experience or are looking to refine your skills, I provide a structured, supportive approach that makes Chinese and Japanese accessible without compromising on depth or quality. With a background in multicultural business environments and training in executive function and social communication, I go beyond basic instruction. I help you develop strong learning habits, accurate pronunciation (including tones), and practical language skills you can use in real-life situations. Each lesson is carefully tailored to your pace and goals—whether you’re learning for conversation, travel, or professional growth. My teaching is patient, efficient, and highly personalized, so you can progress with clarity and confidence from day one. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, high-standard approach to learning Chinese or Japanese-even as a complete beginner—I’d be glad to work with you.

I’m an older semi-retired Westerner wishing to develop respectable conversational Mandarin. I’m so pleased that I found Dongni. Our first lesson was immediately adjusted to my level. I didn’t feel shy or awkward when trying to make proper pronunciation which must sound painful given my South Jersey accent. We explored the Mandarin accent an inflection symbols and that was immediately helpful. Dongni was well prepared with slides that she sent me after the lesson. The slides were clear, concise and very helpful post-lesson. I found Dongni’s manner to be well suited for teaching. She was able to instruct, guide and correct in the most charming and non-threatening way. This added to my hopes of achieving my goal. We have all experienced sour instructors who routinely roll their eyes or wince(driver Ed). Dongni on the other hand was so positive that I started to fantasize about being a translator at the UN(almost). I’m already trying out my Mandarin pronunciation with my Chinese friends. I’m way more encouraged than I thought I would be at this early stage.

Over the past 3 years, working with Dongni has been one of the best investments I’ve made both personally and professionally. Learning Chinese can feel intimidating at first, but she made the entire process engaging, practical, and tailored to my real-world business needs. Because of her teaching, I’ve been able to communicate more confidently with my business clients in China, better understand cultural nuances, and build stronger professional relationships. The lessons were always patient, encouraging, and customized to situations I actually encounter in business and travel. What stands out most is her consistency, professionalism, and genuine passion for teaching. She didn’t just teach vocabulary — she helped me develop confidence speaking and connecting with people in a meaningful way. I’m extremely grateful for everything Dongni has taught me over the years and highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Chinese for business, travel, or personal growth.

At first, I was skeptical about taking classes with them because I couldn't find many references. I've already had several sessions, and my level has increased very quickly, so I'm very happy. Professor Dongni has a lot of experience and common sense to adapt to your level and needs.
