Hi everyone! I’m Isabella, an international Chinese teacher at Yunnan University with five years of dedicated teaching experience. Beyond designing lessons and leading classes, I spend my free time studying the learning habits of students from diverse cultural backgrounds—whether you’re from Europe, Southeast Asia, or the Americas, I strive to understand your unique learning styles. I also love collecting interesting cultural anecdotes, which I can’t help but share in class, hoping to build a close connection with you right from the start. What makes me stand out from other teachers? First, I’m fluent in both Mandarin and English, so when it comes to tricky grammar points or cultural nuances, I can explain them in the language you’re more comfortable with—no more struggling with confusing translations. Additionally, I’ve practiced Chinese calligraphy and classical dance for over a decade. In my classes, I don’t just teach words; I bring culture to life. For example, when we talk about the Spring Festival, I’ll show you how to fold red envelopes and even teach a simple folk dance move, turning Chinese learning into a vivid, memorable experience. My classes always center around you. Before we start, we’ll have a casual chat to figure out your learning goals—are you preparing for a trip to China, looking to communicate with local colleagues, or just curious about the language? Then I’ll tailor the content: if you’re a traveler, we’ll focus on practical phrases for ordering food or asking for directions; if it’s for work, we’ll practice business greetings and email writing. In class, we’ll play interactive games like “Chinese Charades” and simulate real-life scenarios, such as haggling at a market or chatting with a taxi driver—so you can use what you learn right away. I totally get the nervousness of learning a new language—who hasn’t mispronounced a word or mixed up Chinese characters? That’s why I create a relaxed classroom atmosphere, where mistakes are seen as part of the learning process. If you’re unsure about a word’s usage, feel free to ask—I’ll never rush you. And if you have questions after class, my inbox is always open, and I’ll reply with clear, patient explanations. My goal isn’t just to teach you Chinese; it’s to help you learn with confidence and enthusiasm every step of the way. Let’s start this fun Chinese-learning journey together!
