I was born and raised in Hong Kong. My mother tongue is Cantonese. I am also fluent in English. I am currently studying and practicing French and Mandarin. I am now residing in Ottawa and have lived in Ottawa for over 30 years. You can call me Allan. I was teaching Cantonese to a group of 6 students every Saturday. I am currently engaged in teaching languages (Cantonese and English) on Zoom and VooV online meetings. I host an online meeting on languages called "Allan Language Research Lab." which is open to the public at 8 p.m. every Friday at Hong Kong local time.
I have a degree in Business Information Systems.
I work in the IT industry for over 30 years. I am currently providing IT services to a government department.
At first, I will assess each student and determine which level is suitable for the student. The teaching method for each student is tailored. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Rest assured that I will work with you and get to understand your pace and goals. I will motivate you to make an effort and aim for progress.
I am available on weekdays and weekends evenings. Special arrangements can be made during the daytime on weekends.
I am mostly available online during my availability timeframe. I can be reached via Discord, Duo, Hangouts, Instagram, LINE, Meet, Messenger, Skype, Telegram, VooV, WeChat, WhatsApp, and Zoom. If you use an app other than those mentioned, please let me know which one. I will install your preferred app. If you prefer to have a face-to-face session, please let me know your preferred time(s), date(s), and public place(s). Please note that I am charging the HST.
COVID-related notices:
Local in-person lessons are available. Extra fees apply.
I am fully vaccinated with 4 doses of the Pfizer vaccine. Vaccine certificates can be shown during the first meeting.
