I was born in China and currently reside in the United States. I am a certified Mandarin teacher with 10 years of teaching experience. I help students of all levels systematically improve their Chinese listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Each lesson is fully personalized based on students’ learning goals, language proficiency, and learning styles. In addition, I have nearly 20 years of English teaching experience and over 10 years of experience in educational research and teaching management.

I am from northern China and have a standard and clear Mandarin pronunciation, which helps students build a strong foundation in pronunciation from the very beginning.

My teaching method is based on systematic professional training from Shanghai University of Engineering Science, one of China’s top universities, where I have gained rich classroom teaching experience in practice and received strong positive feedback from students. I have successfully taught over 100 students from many countries, including France, Spain, Brazil, the United States, Japan, Russia, Africa, Korea, Australia, India, and Turkey, ranging in age from 8 to 70 and covering diverse cultural and professional backgrounds. This has further strengthened my ability to adapt teaching to individual needs.

In my classes, I design structured lesson plans based on student goals and adjust my teaching methods according to different learning styles. I use a variety of teaching materials, including Integrated Chinese, New Practical Chinese Reader, HSK textbooks, and AP Chinese curriculum.

I hold a Mandarin Proficiency Certificate, a China Teacher Qualification Certificate, a Certificate in Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language, and a Certificate in International Chinese Teacher Training.

Excellent Chinese Teacher for High School Beginners

My daughter started taking Chinese for the first time this year as a 10th grader and was facing some challenges at school. 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.

First interaction: fun and informative!

As an old guy with a smattering of Mandarin learning decades ago, I was a bit worried about how a tutor would adapt to my patchwork of ability. Lily was warm and welcoming from the beginning and patient with my own awkward stumbling about, poor grammar poor vocabulary and poor pronunciation. But she was very gracious and understanding as she assessed my level and developed a plan. She was surprisingly remote in a very different time zone, but things worked out, I used the website on a MacBook rather than an app on my phone. There was a bit of a camera problem that I saw her screen well enough and could hear her so it was good enough. I'm really looking forward to my next lesson!
