    About Kimmy Y.

    I'm Kimmy Yao from ICN, California, a part-time Chinese-English bilingual host. I graduated from Zhejiang University of Media and Communication in China with a bachelor degree in broadcasting and hosting. I am far more professional in mandarin pronunciation than other tutors -- I achieved Class A in Certificate of Mandarin Proficiency Test, Announcer host witness in China, and I also won several national host awards. The master degree is in Case Western Reserve University with the major of International Business Law. I have a good command of spoken English, so I will use English to help you understand Chinese culture or words at the beginning when contact with Chinese. 6+ years of experience in Chinese media communication and teaching Chinese as a foreign language has given me a lot of experience in Chinese teaching. I have studied modern Chinese + ancient Chinese in China, so I can combine the characteristics of traditional Chinese culture and rich and varied teaching modes, enabling students to find their own direction and interest points in practice. At the same time, I worked as an international volunteer in Tunisia, teaching children Chinese, so I can communicate with children and beat people easily.
