Hello everyone! Welcome to my page! I am a retired architect with nearly three years of experience teaching Chinese in Montreal. I was born and raised in China and now happily live in Montreal, Canada with my daughter. I am passionate about teaching Mandarin Chinese and traditional Chinese painting, and I enjoy sharing the beauty of language and art with my students. I create a relaxed, fun, and welcoming learning environment for students of all ages. Whether you are just starting to learn or looking to improve, I would be happy to help you! When I’m not teaching, I enjoy painting, baking, and appreciating the little joys of life. I look forward to meeting you and learning together! ✨

My teaching style is warm, patient, and interactive. I tailor each lesson to fit the needs and interests of my students, whether they are beginners or more advanced learners. For Mandarin Chinese, I focus on practical communication, incorporating fun activities like storytelling, songs, and real-life conversations to build confidence. For Traditional Chinese painting, I emphasize creativity and technique, guiding students step by step while encouraging self-expression. I believe that learning should be a joyful journey, and I strive to create a supportive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable exploring and growing at their own pace.
