About Pat
I am a traveler who used to work as an analyst for Fortune 500 U.S. companies. Twelve years ago, I had a chance to go on a solo road trip around the European Alps. Within 90 days, I was able to visit Switzerland, Austria, Germany, France, Spain, Monaco and Italy. That's when I realized, more than ever, the benefits of speaking more than one language. Although I didn't know much French, German and Italian, I was able to leverage the Chinese and English that I have mastered to make friends (a few turned into lifelong friends for the past decade) and seek help in the continent that was once foreign to me.

The Traditional Chinese written language is one of the most beautiful ones visually. As a teacher, my goal is to help my students to learn how to recognize and remember such beautiful characters scientifically based on the categories of these visual words. This method has systematically increased and improved reading and writing for my previous students in both Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. As a believer that language learning is more fun and sustainable when the topics taught are naturally the passions of the student's. I offer the first 20 minutes with any student free-of-charge so we can explore the student's personal interests and topics in Chinese and/or English to customize a learning plan for them.
