Hello!

I’m Ying, originally from China and now living in the U.S. since 2015. As a native speaker of Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese, I began tutoring in college and have over 10 years of experience in both one-on-one and group settings. I love guiding students on their language learning journeys.

My approach is personalized and student-focused because I believe language learning should be practical and enjoyable. I teach all levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced—and tailor each lesson to your specific goals and learning style. Whether you're looking to master daily conversations in Mandarin Chinese, prepare for HSK exams, or explore Cantonese, I create lessons that align with your needs.

My sessions cover all aspects of language acquisition—speaking, listening, reading, and writing—providing a well-rounded experience. I have helped many students achieve higher grades, including those preparing for the AP Chinese Language and Culture exam, where many have achieved top scores.

I teach all age groups and have worked with students ranging from 3 to 70 years old. Whether you’re a young child just starting, a college student enhancing your skills, or a professional using Chinese in your career, I adapt my methods to ensure each lesson is engaging and suitable for your developmental stage.

I am committed to creating a positive and supportive environment where students feel confident and motivated. My teaching style is enthusiastic and patient, and I welcome feedback to ensure my approach meets your needs.

I look forward to helping you achieve your language goals and making your learning experience both effective and enjoyable!

Outstanding and Inspiring Mandarin Tutor

I have had the privilege of learning Chinese from Ying for the past few years, starting as a complete beginner and now confidently working towards speaking and reading the language. Ying's approach to teaching has been invaluable. Her lessons are well-structured, engaging, and tailored to my personal learning goals. She not only excels at explaining grammar, vocabulary, and reading, but also infuses lessons with fascinating cultural insights and stories that make learning feel easy and fun. Ying is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging. Her ability to make complex topics accessible, combined with her talents for teaching, has kept me motivated and excited to keep progressing. If you're looking for an exceptional Chinese teacher who will guide you through every step of the language-learning journey, I highly recommend Ying. She’s truly an outstanding 老师 (teacher), and anyone would be lucky to have her!

Excellent Cantonese Tutor

I booked a Cantonese lesson as a birthday gift for my husband, and this tutor made it truly special. From the very first message, she took the time to explain how lessons would work by providing examples. She was flexible with scheduling and excited to help pull off the surprise. During the lesson, she was kind, engaging, and very knowledgeable, and she added meaningful insights into his family’s cultural background and traditions. My husband said he could follow everything she explained and really enjoyed learning with her. She’s clearly a seasoned professional and an excellent teacher. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for Cantonese or Mandarin lessons!

Professional, knowledgeable & Friendly

My 14th year old enjoyed her session very much. Ying was very helpful and easy to work with to help my daughter in her school lessons. She made things a lot more understandable vs our school teacher. Thank you

Responsive and easy to work with

Ying is helping me build my fluency to speak Chinese properly. She is very nice, easy to communicate with, and in one lesson taught me a meaningful insight I needed. I plan to continue with her.

Ying is an outstanding teacher

Ying is an excellent tutor. My 15 years old daughter who has been studying Mandarin since 3 years old needed help with formal essay writing and Ying went above and beyond to help guide her. Ying reviewed her essay before class and highlighted all the sentences that they would discuss during class. Ying gave advice on sentence structure, different ways to phrase something, punctuation and a whole lot more. She was very patient and clear with her explanations. Our daughter thought she was amazing. Also, she was very responsive and clear in her communication before the first class. I highly recommend Ying.
