I am a formally trained and certified Chinese language teacher with over 21 years practical teaching and tutoring experience. I received a Teacher’s certificate in 1985 from Suining Teacher’s School (Sichuan Province, China), and taught Mandarin Chinese for 8 years at Gaosheng Elementary School in Suining, China. During this time, I continued my studies and received a diploma in Chinese Language and Literature from Sichuan University in Chengdu, China (1990). In 1993 I moved to Guangxi Province to teach at Minle Road Elementary School, which is recognized as the top elementary school in the capital city of Nanning. I taught at Minle elementary for 13 years, until I immigrated to the U.S. in 2006. In addition to teaching in the classroom, I tutored students at home for several years, either one-on-one or in small groups in Mandarin and written Chinese. I received multiple awards from the Chinese government in recognition of my excellent teaching skills. I can tailor my lessons based on the age, background and interest of the student. Whether you want to gain basic conversational skills, improve grammar and pronunciation, or learn to read and write in Chinese, I can provide excellent and interesting instruction. For students that want to learn to write in Chinese, I recommend computer-based character entry, as this reduces the amount of memorization and practice, which speeds up the learning process. For students that want to learn the art form of Chinese characters, I can teach you basic calligraphy skills, with traditional ink brush methods.

Great Teacher!!

Teacher Li is an amazing Chinese Language teacher. She has deep knowledge of Chinese language and is very patient in her approach to conducting all the lessons. She takes time to explain everything about pronunciations and grammar and also is very good at teaching how to draw Chinese characters. I have learned so many things from her about Chinese language and grammar over the past year! I am very happy to have her as my teacher! Highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Chinese Language!!

Knowledgeable and patient teacher.

I am refreshing my graduate-level Chinese. She shows a good understanding of American English and Chinese. Li is very patient and can gently move me towards the correct outcomes. I look forward to our next lesson.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor!

Ms. B is a talented tutor, both online and in-person. My nephew, Felix, is 6 years old and mostly fluent in Mandarin Chinese. He is working with Ms. B to remain fluent, and to learn how to read and write characters. Felix is an animated young man, and Ms. B demonstrates skill and patience in keeping him focused on his lessons. Highly recommend!
