About Yan
Since I was young, I have always had a great passion for teaching. Going back to my childhood, I was always the one playing the role of the teacher teaching all the other children with chalks on the wall. I naturally chose Teaching English to Speakers of other languages as my first degree when I was in China and started teaching professionally right after graduation in the UK. Through teaching, I love to see how students grow their knowledge and most importantly learn with interest and fun. It’s an asset I can pass on to them and bring a difference to their life. Especially being a mother myself gives me the advantage of being kind and patient towards children's education and always deliver the lesson with a lot of love and understanding.

My experiences in teaching Chinese are really diverse. I was awarded a Higher Education Teaching Certificate in China in 2007, and started teaching Mandarin to speakers of other languages in 2008 after completing my postgraduate study in Education in the UK. Currently, I work within Higher Education in Central London, and in a local Chinese School teaching Mandarin to students aged 5 to 18 years old. I also teach privately on a one-to-one basis. Also, I had previously co-founded a Chinese School in Cyprus teaching Mandarin to students of all levels, from beginning to intermediate, and of all ages from 10 to even pensioners. I offer simple and interesting Mandarin sessions for all levels, beginner to advanced, one-to-one or in groups. Currently, I am using YCT - Youth Chinese Test standard course book for School teaching but I also design my own course materials and lesson plans for each individual lesson. It's a lengthy process as it can last between 2 to 3 hours depending on the need; however, I am committed to being the best for my students and meeting their needs effectively. I appreciate that taking up Mandarin as an additional language may sound very challenging, especially for beginners; however, I make sure each of my lessons is very well prepared and structured, fun-packed with all kinds of learning activities and easy-to-access resources. After each lesson, I give tailored feedback and homework for students to practise and further strengthen their language skills at home. For assessment, I use in-class reading, listening, writing or speaking tests and end-of-term tests. All my students have received very good grades so far.

Yan is a very professional Chinese teacher. She always set up fun and enjoyble lessons for my kid. She is very kind and she create a great environment to learn Mandarin. I really recommand her.
Yan lao shi teaches my daughter Mandarin over the last 5 months. She managed to progressively build a positive bond with my daughter who is shy in order to create a positive learning environment. She also provides feedback to parent after the class in order to work together to encourage continuous learning at home and preparation for the next class. Overall, happy with Yan lao shi's teaching and would recommend!
