Introduction: Native Chinese speaker, born and grew up in Beijing; How You Will Learn? You will learn Chinese the same way that native Chinese speakers acquire their first language! If you want to sound like a native speaker, you should learn like a native speaker. Think about how Chinese babies listen to their parents, understand what they say, mimic how adults talk, form their first sentences, and eventually attend school to learn how to read & write. Comprehensible Input is the key! You will learn Chinese the same way that native Chinese speakers acquire their first language: * You will hear more than 90% of Chinese in my class starting from the first lesson and you will understand them; * You will be exposed to high frequency vocabulary so you can use them daily; * You will internalize the the sentence structures through natural conversations, so it is effortless to memorize them; * You will feel perfectly comfortable talking with native Chinese speakers, even though your Chinese is not perfect yet. Fun Effective. Interactive. Effortless. Comprehensible Input. Remember, language is not just a tool, it’s a gateway. You are not only learning how to speak Chinese, you are learning how to be confident.

Angela was quick to respond and we immediately set up a trial lesson. She is so friendly and patient - she's definitely got a unique teacher's mind, meaning she'll see what you want to learn and then assess how she'll teach you. That's the dream, a perfect teacher who doesn't just teach Chinese ONE WAY. She caters to what works FOR YOU in what YOU WANT. This is my first time finding a tutor to really work on Mandarin and I'm excited for my journey to come with Angela!

Angela adds a new layer to learning. She focuses on telling a story to acquire a foundation to Chinese. I have only known her for a short time, but she seems to add very good value to the lessons.

I’ve been using Angela’s tutoring services for my 11 yo son for a few months. My boy had just finished a 5 year immersive Mandarin program and asked for tutoring so he wouldn’t lose what he’s learned. Angela has done a great job, been responsive when I needed to adjust the schedule, adjusted lessons for my son, etc. Both he and I are really happy with the experience

I had my trial lesson with Angela and learned so much! She has a great method of teaching and then provides additional material to help solidify the lesson in my mind. Lots of listening and repetition, along with visual clues and printed words. I'm a visual learner so that really helps me! I'm looking forward to being able to have a simple conversation in Mandarin soon.
