我已经学习汉语快十年了所以对老师要求也挺高。从倩倩老师先给我测试水平，让我录音中文，到详细探讨了我学习的目标，我已经能感觉到，这位老师的专业性。倩倩老师在很短时间之内找出来我语言上的弱点并且帮我调整改善，尤其是发音上的问题。丰富多彩的课程内容不仅让我很快扩大词汇量而且也改善了我的语感。我们最近还开始学习翻译，虽然挑战很大，但是通过Qian的耐心解释和鼓励，也能感觉到明显的进步。让我最欣赏倩倩的课程是她对自己工作的态度。每次上课她充满积极性和正能量。她人幽默，思想敏捷，从她身上不只能学到中文何中国文化而且交换不同对生活的想法和期待。唯一的遗憾是，不能更多次跟Qian上课，因为自己的时间不允许。

TRANSLATION: I have been learning Chinese for almost ten years, thus I am also very demanding of teachers. Qian first tested my Chinese level by asking for a recording, and we discussed my learning goals in detail. Qian found out my language weaknesses in a short time and helped me to adjust and improve, especially my pronunciation. The diversified content not only allows me to quickly expand my vocabulary but also improves my sense of language. We also started to learn translation recently. Although it is quite a challenge, I can feel the obvious progress with Qian's patient explanation and encouragement. What I admire the most is her professional attitude towards her work. She is full of enthusiasm and positive energy in every class. She is humorous and quick-minded. Aside from learning more about the Chinese language and culture, we also exchange different ideas and expectations about life. My only regret is that I don’t have enough time to follow more classes with Qian.

Quotes from students

David S.                  New Channel VP

For some years my Chinese had reached the kind of level where I was able to communicate in most situations confidently, but was painfully aware that, when it came to more in-depth discussions, the right expressions and phrases to express clearly and accurately what was in my mind often remained stubbornly out of reach. I knew that I needed to find a teacher with a passion for language and who relished the challenge of finding ways of expressing subtleties and nuances of meaning in Chinese. From the first lesson with Qian, I knew that I had found what I was looking for. Qian listens with concentrated attention as I flounder about with ill-chosen words and badly formed syntax gently suggesting the best way to convey what I am trying to say in clear, succinct and elegant Chinese. Each lesson is a pleasure and feels like a relaxed conversation over coffee. However, afterward, I am always presented with a list of my more egregious pronunciation errors as well as where I misused words and how I should have expressed myself more idiomatically. I always gain a huge amount from each lesson and feel, after just a couple of months, that my Chinese is finally making progress again.

 I highly recommend Qian’s Chinese classes, suitable for both beginners, intermediate and advanced speakers who want to improve their translating and interpreting skills. Qian is patient and flexible and ensures that the classes are catered to the student's ability and goals. I appreciate the overview of relevant vocabulary and pronunciation pointers that Qian provides after each lesson. Qian’s personalized classes have greatly contributed to my Chinese language skills.

I would highly recommend Qian to anyone who is getting started with learning Chinese. I had been trying to use an app before but have failed as you just can’t get the same experience and quality as from an expert teacher (be it virtual or in-person). Qian is very patient and can tease out exactly which bits need some more practice which helped me immensely. Plus the lessons are really fun and I feel I have made great progress in a matter of weeks. Thanks Qian!

I have worked with Qian for a couple of months, I’m just a beginner, so I have no idea how to speak Chinese or read Chinese but thanks to her I was able to learn, new vocabulary, speaking tones, sentences, and structures, Chinese characters, many more things, I would highly recommend her, she is a great person and great Teacher. I plan to come back to her once my school schedule frees up again that’s how good she is. I highly recommend her!!!

I've been learning Chinese with Qian for about two years, and my Chinese skills have grown quite a lot in that time period. She's excellent at explaining the small difference between two similar Chinese words. Would recommend her highly!
