As a native speaker with top-tier professional credentials, I bring university-level teaching expertise to my students. I hold the National Proficiency Test of Putonghua (Level 1-A), the National Mandarin Proficiency Tester Certificate, and the Certificate for Teachers of Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages (CTCSOL). Before moving to the U.S., I served as a Chinese instructor at a university in my hometown, where I specialized in teaching international students and successfully guided many of them through the HSK proficiency exams.
When I learned that American high school students also have a demand for learning Chinese language and culture, I began researching the key focus areas of the AP Chinese Language and Culture exam. I discovered that beyond requiring pure pronunciation and the ability to communicate normally, the real challenge lies in mastering the culture behind the language and its integration. This is actually a great thing, because culture and language are intertwined. I will lead students in an in-depth study of the culture while helping them master the language more solidly.
As a mother of a high school student living in Irvine, I fully understand the high academic standards and the immense pressure our children face. I hope to use my years of professional expertise and deep understanding of Chinese culture to support them. Whether for long-term enrichment or an intensive exam cram, each student will receive a customized study plan tailored specifically to their needs.
