About me

Hello! I’m Tianhong, an international student who has been soaking up the California sun in San Francisco for six years. As a multi-language speaker, I totally get it—learning a new language can be as tricky as trying to fold a fitted sheet. As a native Chinese speaker from China, I know all the best tips and tricks to make Chinese feel like a breeze.

Teaching Chinese is my passion because it lets me meet amazing people from all over the world. Whether you're a newbie still figuring out how to say "hello" or an intermediate learner ready to tackle more, I'm your go-to guide. Helping you improve your Chinese is not just my job—it's my joy. So, let’s make learning Chinese as fun as a day at the beach (without the sand in awkward places)!

As a native Chinese speaker fluent in both Chinese and English, I bring a unique and effective approach to language teaching. With a background in education and three years of experience, I am dedicated to helping students master the Chinese language with confidence and ease.

Teaching Experience:

I have over three years of experience teaching Chinese to students of various ages and proficiency levels. I have worked in diverse educational settings, including language schools, online platforms, and private tutoring. My students have ranged from beginners with no prior knowledge to advanced learners aiming to perfect their skills.

I scheduled two back-to-back lessons with this tutor in the evening, but he didn’t show up for either of them—and never sent a message or an apology. Later, he said he assumed I wouldn’t attend because I had rescheduled in the past. I found this extremely disappointing and unprofessional. If tutors on this platform feel they can skip classes based on assumptions, without even informing students, it really undermines trust in the whole learning experience.

I am preparing for HSK4 and I was looking for a native Chinese speaker to help me with the speaking part that i was feeling insecure the most ! I and tianhong are having lessons for over a month now and already feel more confident and my vocabulary is richer. I recommend him for sure!!!
