About Me

No matter learning Chinese is just your interest, your school responsibility or for your business, you will find it much more fun to acquire Chinese with me. My American born and raised husband is the best example of my teaching achievements. Within four years, he could speak fluently Chinese and fill out documents and forms in Chinese. I have been leaning English and literature my whole life and the progress that I made in English learning compared with his is shameful. If you are interested in learning Chinese with me, who have taught people Chinese from age 3 to age 30, please take a look at my teaching experience and business career information below to see if we are a great match. I will be more than pleasant to tailor classes just for you. I completed a 4 year degree in English, concentrating in translation, in Beijing Jiaotong University, one of the nations oldest and most advanced institutions and since I was in the top of my class, the Graduate school entrance examination was waived. I continued my studies earning a Masters degree in English Literature there while spending the first year of my program as a foreign exchange student at Montclair State University in New Jersey. In August of 2011.After graduation, I began working at China Chamber of Commerce of Metals, Minerals and Chemicals Importers and Exporters, first in the Liaison department and later in the Exhibition department. While working as a Liaison office, I was tasked with translation and interpretation services while meeting with CEOs, politicians, and other leaders from both international and domestic companies, governments and organizations. Later moving to the Exhibition department, I began to help organize overseas exhibitions and domestic trainings on foreign trade for our member companies. Throughout all these years I have taught many people Chinese as well. I taught my American husband Chinese to a high intermediate level where he can now hold conversations with anyone in China. I also taught Chinese with Huaxia Chinese School at Plainsboro to the children of Chinese Immigrants and American Born Chinese. I had teaching experience as a ESL teacher at Montclair High School in New Jersey during my foreign exchange program. As a foreign language learner, I know what it takes to learn another language and I am confident to let you excel in your Chinese learning.
