    1. HSK (Chinese Language proficiency test) Tutor&Examiner: As a certified HSK examiner and administrator, I am very familiar with the HSK and tutoring, and I will be the best helper if you need to take this test. The number of students who passed HSK was 91 out of 98 I tutored before, and two students passed the level 5 HSK test. 2. An enjoyable teaching style and enthusiastic personality: Students selected me as the April Teacher of the Month, and they enjoyed my class so much. In the Chinese AAPPL test, my students' scores have gone from being far below the national average to exceeding the average. In the school district, only 2 high school Chinese teachers have achieved it out of 25 teachers. 3. Curriculum Specialist: I am an M. Ed of Curriculum and instruction major and a Bachelor of Arts in Chinese Language and Literature. In addition to being a high school teacher in Texas public school, I have designed and developed the Chinese Advanced A curriculum and served as the course lead, creating online lessons and assignments for 21 campuses of the district during the pandemic. 4. Multicultural and Multilingual: I have been a teacher in the United States, China, and Thailand. I have also taught students from various countries, including the USA, UK, Thailand, Russia, India, France, Korea, Japan, etc. I speak four languages, Mandarin, Cantonese, English, and Thai. 5. Versatility and hobbies galore: I have many specialties, such as piano, singing, calligraphy, Chinese painting, Chinese musical instrument gourd silk, embroidery, and recitation. Therefore, I can tutor you in these competitions. The students I trained have won many awards. One student won second place in the National Chinese Singing Competition. In the National Chinese Knowledge Contest, one student won 16th place, and the other three won the top 50. In the eastern region competitions of Thailand, they won four first and one third place. In school competitions, they won two first prizes and three second prizes. Don't hesitate. Starting today, you will be able to speak Chinese fluently as well!
