Hello. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Chinese Linguistics at The Ohio State University, focusing on second language acquisition. I also hold a Master's degree in Linguistics from West Virginia University. Over the past nine years, I have taught Chinese language and culture at universities such as The Ohio State University, West Virginia University, the University of Virginia, and the University of Maine at Farmington.

I have experience teaching Mandarin at all levels, including speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, conversation, Business Chinese, and test prep, such as HSK and OPI. I also offer customized lessons based on individual goals and interests.

My teaching approach is communicative and student-centered, focusing on real-world language use, interactive learning, and personalized instruction. Each lesson is tailored to meet the student's needs, promoting language skills and cultural understanding.

Whether you're studying Chinese for academics, career, travel, or personal enrichment, I am dedicated to supporting your learning journey and helping you achieve your goals.
