Improve your Mandarin/Chinese in engaging lessons from a friendly teacher with 10+ years experience
I have been teaching Mandarin in bay area for 10+ years. I have experiences in teaching 1:1 private lessons, small groups, as well as after school lessons in elementary schools. I am very experienced in customizing private lessons for students of different age or different needs and goals. I have prepared a wide variety of learning materials for students at various levels. I help students to improve their Mandarin speaking and writing skills as well as to get prepared for the language test. In my class, students will not only learn a new language in a very fun and interactive way, but also have a chance to learn about Chinese culture. Those cultural knowledges are embedded in every topics, and I am here to help you connect them with what we've learned in our lessons. No matter if you just get started or have been learning for a few years, I am always willing to help you seek further improvement. For more information, please send an online message to me. I am looking forward to working with you:)
Background:
I am a Chinese native speaker with a Master degree in Education. I've also got a teaching credential to teach in public schools in China. I teach both private lessons and group lessons in bay area. I am experienced in customizing lessons for both children and adults. In my class, students' "needs" and "wants" are prioritized. It helps students achieve their goals while combined with students' "lacks" in lesson planning. I've gained a lot of successful teaching experiences in designing lessons targeting students' goals and expectations. I have taught young students who just start from the scratch as well as big kids and adult students who have been speaking Chinese as a second language for many years.

Lin is a great teacher. She pointed out many problems I didn't notice before, which helped me perform better. She also helped me build a solid foundation by paying attention to every detail.

Lin is a fantastic violin teacher. My 13 year daughter was just starting violin lessons for the first time - Lin is always patient, flexible, and knows to engage my daughter. My daughter is really enjoying her violin lessons.
