About Me
italki teacher since Jul 16, 2021Interest topicTravelFoodFilms & TV Series
Hi! My name is Yan. 上海出身、師範大学英文科卒。英語教師として働き、後に日本に移住。現在は駐妻として、ホーチミン市で暮らしております。長年多言語、多文化環境に於いて培ったコミュニケーションスキルを皆様の中国語学習にお役に立てれば嬉しいです。
I'm a native Chinese speaker and I also speak Japanese, English, Vietnamese and Thai language. I love travelling, making friends and exchanging languages with people from all over the world.
According to my experience, it is possible to communicate with local people by learning a new language 6
months only. For example, you are able to ask for directions, order foods or go sightseeing even though your vocabulary is still limited. Speaking a language brings you a better understanding of the country's culture.
I did it and of course you can!Me as a Teacher
I have teaching experiences for students from Japan, Thai and Vietnam, including group lessons and one-on-one lessons. With many years of cross cultural experiences living abroad in different countries, I realized learning a local language is indispensable, which makes my life abundant, interesting and meaningful. The most efficient and effective way is to expose yourself to it as much as possible. Learning with a language partner or navigator is the only short-cut. Now It's my pleasure if I can share my strategies, methods and experiences with you. Teaching is learning, I'm sure we can learn a lot from each other. I shall tailor curriculum for you to meet both your level and needs.My lessons & teaching style

The lessons are well structured and organized and the teacher is extremely helpful sending custom made lesson material after the lesson as well so I can practice by myself.
I have tried many different teachers over the past years with different languages, but I can highly recommend Yan for teaching you.
