What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue teaching Mandarin and English in learner-centered roles where I can tailor lessons, build confidence, and support students' language goals across online or in-person settings.

I've delivered live online Mandarin lessons through Jeremy E. Watson Educational Center and MandarinTutor.com, supporting learners of different ages and proficiency levels, including IGCSE Mandarin students following the British Curriculum.

I customize lessons around each learner's goals and pace, with focused support for pronunciation, tone accuracy, and foundational Mandarin reading and writing. I've also taught Chinese one-to-one in person through Apprentus.

Alongside Mandarin teaching, I've taught beginner English remotely for multiple non-profit centers, using Zoom lessons on reading comprehension, vocabulary, pronunciation, and structured Q&A. I make concepts accessible for learners with little or no English confidence.

My background also includes classroom and science-resource support at The British School of Beijing, youth language enrichment in Northern Thailand, and bilingual communications and volunteer coordination for Little Flower Projects.
