Learning Chinese with me is never just about turning pages. It is a dynamic and transformative journey where progress feels exciting and achievable.
Hi!
I’m Ryan. I wear two hats—a language teacher by day and a PhD student by… well, also by day (and often late into the night). I love helping students build their skills and confidence in Chinese languages, and nothing makes me happier than seeing that lightbulb moment when everything clicks.
Professional.
With years of teaching experience, I combine structure and professionalism with a warm and engaging approach to language learning. Every lesson is tailored to your needs, making the journey both effective and enjoyable. My goal is not only to help you develop strong linguistic skills but also to spark curiosity about the cultural nuances that bring the Chinese languages to life.

More than a Language Teacher
My teaching philosophy is simple: Less lecturing, more practising! I create a friendly and interactive space where you can actively speak Chinese with confidence. Along the way, I love sharing insights into the rich history and incredible diversity of the Chinese languages, so every lesson feels like both a skill-building session and a cultural adventure.

Learn Smarter, Not Harder
I believe language learning should always be learner-centred. Having worked with over hundreds of students of all ages and levels, I know that no two learners are alike. Everyone brings their own goals, habits, and strengths to the table. That is why I tailor my teaching to match your style, making sure the journey feels personal, motivating, and geared toward your success.

Systematic
My goal is to get you speaking Chinese confidently, from a single sentence to a full conversation. Using the textbook as a structured foundation, I guide you through a systematic progression of skills, bringing it to life with interactive practice, cultural insights, and plenty of encouragement. Step by step, we build your ability to communicate effectively and naturally in real-life situations.

Authentic
Getting the language right is important, but understanding the cultural nuances is what makes your Chinese truly authentic. I’ll help you speak naturally, with the right tone and style for any situation, so your conversations feel confident, smooth, and genuinely alive. Along the way, you’ll not only master the words but also gain a deeper sense of how to express yourself in culturally appropriate and meaningful ways.

Practical
With so many Chinese learning materials out there, my lessons focus on the practical ones that actually help you use the language in real-life situations. Every activity is designed to get you speaking, listening, reading, and writing in ways that are immediately useful and effective. From day one, you’ll be practising language that you can really use.
