Alex M.

16 Chinese lessons

It definitely is evident in her lessons, as she is able to easily incorporate vocab and lessons into the normal conversation, making learning seamless and efficient. I have studied Chinese for some time now and had many teachers, but Jing has easily the most fluid and organic teaching style and I am really enjoying our lessons. I am confident she will be able to help me take my Chinese to the next level of proficiency.
Hannah Y.

10 Chinese lessons

My daughter just turned 6 and has completed three lessons with Ms. Siko. We requested to learn traditional Chinese and it has been a great experience so far. Since my daughter knows her alphabet and sounds, pinyin has also been a (surprisingly) great way to kick off her interest and confidence in learning Chinese. I appreciate Ms. Siko for her punctuality, gentleness, and firmness in working with my active 6 year old.
Lewis G.

3 Chinese lessons

She obviously cares about her pupil. My wife is Chinese so Karen needs to slow down a little, and right now, stay on the specific problems of passing the US Citizen exam, and not try to explain political history and theory. That could come later. Wife needs exam practice mostly, some discipline to pass the interview and exam. I am sure Karen can help with that. 2nd lesson much more specific and very helpful. More interaction with my Chinese wife.
