About Me
italki teacher since Nov 14, 2018
Wei Wei here! I teach English and Mandarin. I am a native Mandarin speaker from Taiwan, speak broadcast standard accent, have a firm command of the English language & speak accent-free American English. I have 15+ years of full-time academic teaching experience & held professorships in three U.S. federal accredited universities. I began to tutor Mandarin to the U.S. diplomats when I was 16 y/o because my mother worked for the State Dept. Also, as a Mandarin teacher. I am great with beginners & kids as I am very patient and love to support your unique interests. If you speak zero or very little Mandarin or English, I can absolutely efficiently communicate w/ you without the language barriers.

Wei Wei is a world-class teacher in my honest opinion. Being her student is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to me. I knew instantly from watching her videos online that the only way I would learn Mandarin is if Wei Wei is my teacher. I have extremely high standards for my teachers partly because I know that I'm not just learning the subject at hand from my teachers, but I'm also learning how to be human through my teachers. Wei Wei's commitment to her craft and her students is unwavering. She is in integrity with her word, honest, and holds me accountable. The way she also teaches ("direct experience") is my favorite way to learn. If you are a musician (singer, instrumentalist), you will see that learning Mandarin with Wei Wei is like singing. It's like muscle memory when playing instruments as well. With only a few lessons with Wei Wei, I'm already able to ask and answer questions in Mandarin with the correct tones and pronunciation. Give yourself the gift of being Wei Wei's student.

I've been working with Wei Wei Laoshi for the past eight weeks, and the results have been fantastic. She is patient and attentive to the things I want to work on as a Chinese speaker and has a deep understanding of both language and pedagogy, which makes each class fun, engaging, and informative! While I use Mandarin every day for my job, I have been feeling a bit rusty when it comes to speaking and writing and was looking for a way to get back to the level I was at when attending graduate school in Taiwan almost a decade ago. These classes are doing the trick! These hourly lessons have certainly become a highlight of my week and are helping me enjoy the language more again, and giving me that extra bit of confidence I needed to conduct more meetings in Chinese with co-workers, and just generally use the language with extra confidence in my day-to-day life. 謝謝老師!

Amazing. Wei Wei is a master Chinese educator. She gets to know my children’s interest, learning preferences, and dispositions towards Chinese, works these into her approach with each individual child, and continually checks in to assess that they are making progress and growing in their interest in learning Chinese. What Wei Wei does is not simply helping them learn Chinese, but grow an authentic interest and love of the Chinese language. Wei Wei also offers supportive videos for individual practice between lessons that my children find really easy to access and use. All around, Wei Wei is an incredible teacher and humans

Wei Wei Laoshi’s experience and level of professionalism are impecable. I am a teacher myself so my standards are high. She knows how to interact with young learners in a professional manner to create an online learning experience that is full of respect and accomplishment. During her classes she does not move on from a lesson until she knows that my children have mastered the skill. There is a driving factor in her personality that I have already seen being beautifully transferred to my own children. She is incredible at teaching effective communication skills and other skills that will set my children up for success in any learning environment. Her classes far exceed my expectations and my children’s confidence and joy for learning mandarin have grown because of her. I plan for all 4 of my children to learn mandarin from Wei Wei Laoshi for years to come! We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to know such an incredible educator and master in language acquisition.

瑋瑋老師 has helped me go beyond just learning Mandarin Chinese, and I'm loving every minute of it. Through these lessons, I've gained a deeper appreciation and understanding of Chinese art, history, and philosophy. I love her ability to adapt lesson content and style to suit my interests and curiosity. I look forward to these lessons each and every week and I can't recommend her enough. 非常感謝,瑋瑋老師!

Wei Wei laoshi is a phenomenal teacher. I started taking lessons with her at the beginning of my Mandarin language journey, because I wanted more one-on-one teaching that I wasn't getting at my university. In just over a year I feel like she has helped catapult me further along than I imagined. She is always patient with me and challenges me to work hard. I also like how she constantly places emphasis on tone, pronunciation, and listening. She was also kind enough to work with my hectic university schedule so that I could meet her 2 to 3 times a week. If you choose Wei Wei laoshi as your instructor you will not be disappointed! As long as you have the time, commitment, and enthusiasm to learn she will get you to where you want to be.
