Yanyan

Hello! I’m Yanyan, a native mandarin speaker from Beijing with over 5 years of teaching experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Journalism, the official CTCSOL certificate, and I speak fluent English and some Spanish. I love reading and traveling, and these passions constantly bring fresh ideas and inspiration into my teaching. I’ve helped so many students go from “I can’t” to “I can!”. My background in journalism makes me very sensitive to language and communication. I know how to spot where students are struggling — and I’ll give you just the right tips and support to keep moving forward. Who I Teach ✅ Absolute beginners (never learned Chinese before). ✅ Students preparing for HSK exams. ✅ Learners who want to speak confidently from the start. ✅ Adults who want structured, efficient, and friendly lessons. My Teaching Style 🌟 Step-by-step guidance — I help you build a solid foundation from zero. 🌟 Clear explanations — I break down tones, characters, and grammar in simple ways. 🌟 Spiral learning — We review and build on what you’ve learned each time. 🌟 Low-pressure learning — You’ll understand and absorb things in class, with less homework pressure. What You Can Expect: ✨ Start speaking basic Chinese in the first few lessons. ✨ Build confidence with practical dialogues and real-life examples. ✨ Customized lessons based on your goals and interests. ✨ Lots of encouragement and support — mistakes are welcome. ✨ Insights into Chinese culture, thinking, and daily life to help you understand the language better. Whether your goal is to pass HSK, travel to China, or just learn something new, I’m here to help you every step of the way. Ready to start your Chinese journey? Book a lesson, and let’s build your confidence step by step! 😊
