About Cisely
I’m Cisely. I’m curious, thoughtful, and a little playful, and I love exploring people, ideas, and culture. Teaching excites me because it’s a way to share what I care about—language, stories, and ways of thinking—while learning alongside my students. I create classes that are interactive, lively, and full of discovery, where students don’t just memorize, they experience and reflect. Outside of class, I dance, play sports, and constantly seek new perspectives on the world. For me, teaching is about sparking curiosity, building confidence, and making learning something students genuinely enjoy and remember.

I’m Cisely, a native Mandarin speaker and U.S.-based university student with extensive experience in humanities research, creative projects, and volunteer teaching. I design lessons to be highly interactive and engaging, blending language skills with cultural and conceptual exploration. For Mandarin, I teach listening, speaking, reading, and writing, while integrating Chinese culture and everyday communication. For humanities topics like sociology, philosophy, and anthropology, I provide English-based introductions that encourage critical thinking, discussion, and reflection.
I create all my lesson materials, often including interactive activities, real-life scenarios, and projects to make learning immersive. Lessons are typically 40–90 minutes, tailored to the student’s level and goals. With over three years of online volunteer teaching and 100+ hours of tutoring, my classes are suitable for beginners to intermediate learners of Mandarin and for students curious about humanities concepts.
