I always really enjoy my lessons with Christine. I have been learning with her for some time now and am much more confident in my tones, pronunciation, and in my understanding of the theory behind everything. I also very much enjoy learning about Taiwanese culture as I learn the language, it helps me to contextualise how I might employ language skills in real life

Christine is an excellent mandarin teacher! Flexible and patient, she adapts both the content of our discussions as well as her teaching technique both to me as an individual person as well as to my specific needs in each session. I thoroughly enjoy our conversations and would highly recommend her to mandarin students at any level and stage of their learning journey. Thank you Christine! 🙏
