We were very lucky to find Lily. She is not only a native Chinese speaker, but also a truly professional Chinese teacher. My daughter really enjoys working with her, and we can already see improvement in both her confidence and understanding. Lily is very organized and gives clear instructions before the lesson, which we really appreciate as parents as well. I highly recommend her for high school students who are studying Chinese.

My son is now able to recognize Chinese characters and speak some mandarin to his grandparents. She really cares about her students. I highly recommend.
