Nice to meet you!

Thanks to my 13 years of experience as an Adjunct Chinese professor, Johns Hopkins University Chinese Instructor (CTY), and a USA Licensed Teacher, I clearly understand students’ pain points when learning Chinese. I have seen firsthand how students struggle with “one-way communication” from paper textbooks, PDFs, PowerPoints, and outdated teaching methods. 

That is why my doctoral academic research at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is studying how to learn Chinese in the most effective ways. I’d like to introduce you to our in-house developed course that is specially designed to solve students’ pain points and optimized to learn Chinese online for adults. Our class will have you practicing and speaking 3 times as much as in traditional courses!
