About Timmy
Hiya, I'm Timmy!
I’m from Shenzhen, China, and I currently teach Mandarin in Western Australia. I began teaching Chinese part-time five years ago while studying Korean at university, and I’ve loved helping language learners ever since.
I completed a master’s degree in psychology in the UK( Nottingham) and later lived in Manchester for another year. While living abroad, I traveled around Europe and built friendships with people from many different cultural backgrounds. These experiences made me more open-minded, adaptable, and comfortable connecting with students from all over the world.
This is my first year living in Australia, where I continue teaching Mandarin and gaining even more experience working with learners from different cultural backgrounds.
I’m naturally curious and always looking for new challenges. I enjoy bouldering, musicals, animals, and plants. Red pandas are my favorite animals—and I also happen to have eight cats!
There are still so many places I hope to explore. I’m curious about different landscapes and cultures, but most of all, I’m curious about you—your story, your goals, and how learning Chinese can connect us.

I help Mandarin learners who feel stuck—whether they struggle to understand, speak, or feel confident—move step by step towards real and natural communication in Chinese.
My Strengths
️ 5 years of experience teaching Mandarin
️ Strong background in cross-cultural communication
️ Native Mandarin speaker
️ English IELTS 7.0
️ Korean TOPIK Level 6
️️ Personalized lessons based on each student’s goals, interests, level, and learning style—not a rigid, one-size-fits-all textbook approach
My background allows me to teach more than correct grammar and pronunciation—I help students use Chinese naturally, confidently, and appropriately in real-life situations.
Because I’m also a language learner, I genuinely understand how frustrating, confusing, or intimidating the process can sometimes feel. I’ll share practical tools and strategies that can make your learning journey smoother, clearer, and more enjoyable.
What I Do for Students
️ Listening and speaking practice
️ Conversation and pronunciation
️ Reading and writing
️ Chinese for complete beginners
️️️ Personalized lessons based on your goals and preferred learning style
And I offer the online lesson for 30/60/90/120 minutes, or in-person lessons at Curtin University(I can book a personal teaching room) or your house for 60/90/120 minutes :)
Please let me know if you have any other questions!
