I have taught students from around the world at any level. In our lesson, you will receive customized lessons based on your level and learning pace. I believe every student is different so it is important for you to have a learner-centered experience. If you prefer a systematic curriculum, we can go by a textbook. If you benefit from speaking, we could have a conversation-based lesson. Have specific learning needs? No problem, I am happy to offer tailored lessons and often do.My lessons & teaching style
👀 Covering 4 skills (speaking, listening, reading, writing), feel free to choose any area you'd like to work on.
📖 Systematic or flexible lesson structure will do. It's about empowering you as a sustainable learner.
㊗️ Interested in learning traditional Chinese or Taiwanese culture? You have come to the right place :)
💰 If you have learned consistently for at least 3 months from our class and believe you have progressed, I will offer you a bonus.
I look forward to helping you grow!My teaching material

這次，我們開始研究一個典故叫《桃花源記》。首先，我們看這篇文章的歷史背景和作家，陶淵明。我很享受這個機會學習古典文學，並且更理解東亞的歷史。我也很欣賞許老師的教學方式。我期待下次；感謝老師！

Brian is an excellent tutor! He did an excellent job of explaining the complexities of the language and made it understandable for a beginner. I really enjoyed his class.

Bryan started tutoring my 8-year old son (who is learning Grade 3 Chinese) early this month. He knows how to adjust his teaching style to my son's level. Within two weeks, I can see improvement in my son's learning experience and confidence.

Our lesson has been more of the casual conversation style which really works well for me! I have booked more classes with Bryan and I am always looking forward to the next one.

Bryan was able to work with my current level of mandarin, and see what I can and can’t do. Once he realized I didn’t know something he quickly jumped on the subject to make it more clear!
He’s awesome, precise, and has a great presence as a teacher. I’ll be studying with him again!

I had my first session with Bryan. It was organic with some chatting, and I'm excited for the next session. He is clear in his instructions and explanation so that things are easy to grasp and remember
