My lessons are one-to-one and fully tailored to each learner’s age, level and goals. Drawing on my master’s training in International Education and two years of volunteer teaching at a Brighton Chinese school, I adapt my style flexibly. For young learners, I use songs, games and picture-based activities to keep sessions fun and build speaking confidence. For GCSE students, we follow the exam specification, working through vocabulary, grammar, past papers and oral practice with clear learning targets each lesson. Adult lessons focus on practical conversational Mandarin for travel, daily life or hobbies.

I start with a quick assessment to understand strengths and gaps. Each session mixes explanation, guided practice and review, with simple homework set when suitable. I create a relaxed, encouraging space so students feel comfortable making mistakes and progressing steadily. Lessons can be online or in-person around Brighton.
