About Alice

Hello, I'm Alice (云锦 is my Chinese name).

I am a native Chinese speaker, and I also studied psychology for two years. That background helps me understand how adults learn a new language—patiently, step by step, without pressure.

My teaching style is relaxed, encouraging, and practical. I focus on real-life conversation, so you can use Chinese immediately. Mistakes are welcome; they are simply part of the journey.

A little about me personally: I love dancing, working out, watching movies, and K-pop dancing. These interests often pop up in my lessons—for example, we might talk about a movie plot, practice dance-related vocabulary, or share workout routines in Chinese. Learning becomes more fun when it connects to what you enjoy.

I am committed to your progress. Every lesson is prepared with clear goals, and I always give you kind but helpful correction. My students describe me as patient, warm, and easy to talk to.

Whether you are a complete beginner or have some basic Chinese, I invite you to book a trial lesson. Let me show you that speaking Chinese can be simple, useful, and enjoyable.

I look forward to meeting you!

About the lesson

My teaching method:
I focus on practical, everyday Chinese. Instead of memorizing grammar rules, you will learn phrases and sentences you can use immediately – for travel, work, or talking with friends.

My techniques:

Speaking first: Each lesson starts with 5–10 minutes of free conversation.

Repetition & correction: I gently correct your pronunciation and let you repeat until it feels natural.

Real materials: We use menus, screenshots, news headlines, or short videos – whatever keeps it interesting.

Pinyin support: Pinyin is always available, so you don't need to learn characters right away.

A typical 45-minute lesson plan:

Warm-up (5 min): How are you? What did you do today?

Review (5 min): Quick practice of last lesson's key sentences.

New content (20 min): 3–5 new phrases/sentence patterns + role-play.

Practice (10 min): You speak; I listen and correct.

Wrap-up (5 min): Summary and a small homework (e.g., record yourself saying 3 sentences).

What sets me apart:

No pressure, no perfectionism. Mistakes are part of learning.

Customized lessons – tell me what you need (HSK, business, travel, daily chat), and I prepare accordingly.

Patience and encouragement. I speak slowly and clearly.

Who my lessons are for:

Level: Complete beginners to lower-intermediate (HSK 1–3).

Who: Adults or older teenagers who want to speak Chinese confidently in real life.

Not for: Advanced learners or those who need intensive character writing training.

你好，我是云锦，你也可以叫我 Alison。
我的名字是云锦。“云”代表灵动、柔软、自由、开阔的视野、吉祥和包容。“锦”代表品质、高贵、美好和丰富多彩。这就是我名字的寓意。
我性格温和，也有点小幽默。我在英国学习生活了很多年，一直在英企工作，所以我的英语非常熟练。但我最爱的，还是自己的母语——中文。
我可以教日常汉语口语，让你在旅行、交朋友时都能自然表达；也可以教商务社交口语和中文商务写作，帮助你在职场中更自信地使用中文。
生活中我喜欢旅游、跳舞、看电影，也一直保持着健康的健身习惯。如果你也喜欢这些，我们可以边聊兴趣边学中文。
你愿意和我一起学中文吗？
