Hello! I'm Esther. I'm a native speaker of Mandarin, born and educated in Taiwan until I attended university. I'm a passionate teacher who excels in using songs and a friendly, natural approach to teaching. I enjoy helping students master conversational skills in real-life situations through dialogues and questions. I also use songs to make learning Chinese more enjoyable and easier to remember.

My background in intercultural studies at Wheaton College, IL, USA, enriches my language teaching by providing students not only with the language but also with an understanding of different cultures. This approach helps students to better collaborate with others and to appreciate diverse perspectives.

For over ten years, I've been teaching English to students ranging from kindergarten to junior high. I can understand the challenge to learn a second language. In my Chinese classes, you can study either traditional or simplified Chinese. I employ personalised materials and internet teaching technologies to make Chinese learning entertaining and efficient.
