If you want your life in Taiwan to be more comfortable, fun, and stress-free, I warmly invite you to join my Chinese speaking course. In this course, you'll learn simple conversations for everyday situations like ordering food at night markets, asking for extra spice on your salted crispy chicken, or customizing your bubble tea with just the right sweetness and ice level. We’ll also cover how to ask for directions, use the MRT, take a taxi, shop for clothes, visit the doctor, and much more. Check out the 14-Day Chinese Speaking Accelerator

If you've been learning Chinese but still find it hard to express your thoughts fluently or want to discuss complex topics like economics, news, or the environment in Chinese, you can book a one-on-one trial lesson with me. Let’s set your goals and achieve Chinese fluency together! Book a one-on-one trial lesson with me ! 😊
