About Pukun
I am a certified Chinese tutor with a professional, patient, and goal-oriented teaching style. I hold the CTCSOL certificate and have experience teaching both children and adults, including complete beginners and professionals who need Chinese for work, travel, or daily communication.
With years of practical English experience in international companies, I am able to teach in both English and Mandarin, which helps students feel comfortable and supported, especially at the beginner level. My lessons are well-structured, interactive, and tailored to each student’s needs, so learners can make steady progress with confidence.
I place great importance on clear explanations, correct pronunciation, and practical communication. I also create a friendly and encouraging classroom atmosphere where students feel safe to speak, make mistakes, and improve step by step. As a senior Toastmasters member and public speaking competition winner, I am especially skilled at helping students build speaking confidence and express themselves more naturally.
If you are looking for a professional, reliable, and supportive Chinese tutor, I would be happy to help you on your learning journey.

My teaching approach is practical, supportive, and personalized. I believe students learn best when lessons are connected to real-life situations and their personal goals. In class, I combine clear explanation, guided speaking practice, pronunciation correction, and interactive activities to help students build confidence step by step. I focus on making Chinese easy to understand and enjoyable to use.
Teaching Method and Techniques
I use different methods depending on the student’s level and goals, including:
Pinyin and pronunciation training for beginners
Situational dialogues for daily life, work, or travel
Step-by-step speaking practice to improve confidence
Vocabulary building through themes
Character learning with simple memory tips and cultural background
Business Chinese practice for meetings, clients, and workplace communication
I also use encouragement and repetition in a natural way, so students can speak more confidently without feeling pressured.
A typical lesson usually includes:
Warm-up and review
Learning new words or sentence patterns
Pronunciation and speaking practice
Role-play or real-life conversation practice
Summary and homework or review suggestions
For beginners, lessons are simple, clear, and highly interactive. For more advanced students, I include deeper conversation, structured speaking, reading, or topic-based discussion.
What makes me different is that I can teach in both English and Chinese, which helps beginners feel more comfortable. I also have experience in business communication, so I can help students who need Chinese for work. As a senior Toastmasters member and public speaking competition winner, I’m especially good at helping students improve speaking confidence and overcome the fear of making mistakes.
My lessons are suitable for:
Children and teenagers
Adult beginners
Professionals learning Chinese for work
Students who want to improve speaking and pronunciation
Learners who want Chinese for travel, daily life, or business communication
I welcome students of different ages and levels, and I always adjust the lesson content to match their needs.
