About Xiaolan

Previously, I completed my bachelor's and master's degree both in education in China and the UK, where I learned basic and specific knowledge in education. My teaching history spans various levels, from primary to junior middle levels in China's 12-year school system to adult learners across three private education institutions. This diverse background facilitated a nuanced grasp of language teaching, allowing me to deploy effective techniques like Phonics and the Situational Approach. These methods proved instrumental in sparking my students' language interest. Since 2016, my role as a Mandarin private tutor for non-Mandarin speakers has been a source of profound satisfaction. Tailoring my approach to accommodate diverse learning needs, I've successfully delivered engaging and interactive lessons both online and in-person. As a part-time Mandarin tutor, adapting to individual preferences has been paramount, fostering an immersive educational environment. Witnessing the tangible progress of my students has perpetuated my enthusiasm for teaching. Moreover, I have an excellent working knowledge of Microsoft Office package and Video editing software since I received the Certificate of National Computer Level 1 and National Teacher Qualification Certificate (China). In a nutshell, as far as I am concerned, I love teaching and always keep passion in it, because education is the base of the bright future of the whole world. I would like to put myself in education forever!

Perfect! Xiaolan is an absolutely fantastic Chinese tutor. Her enthusiasm for teaching
is infectious, and her patience is remarkable — she makes you feel completely
at ease regardless of your level.

What sets her apart is how she tailors every lesson to you. Rather than
following a rigid curriculum, we spend time learning words and phrases that
are genuinely useful in my daily life — the kind of language you actually want
to use in real conversations.

She adapts her teaching style effortlessly to suit your needs, which makes the
whole experience feel personal and effective. I've learned so much more than I
expected.

I highly recommend Xiaolan to anyone looking to learn Mandarin — whether
you're a complete beginner or looking to improve. You won't be disappointed!

William demonstrates exceptional intellectual ability and consistently performs at an outstanding level in classroom exercises. His proficiency in Chinese has exceeded expectations—he exhibits accurate pronunciation, a strong foundational knowledge, and impressive comprehension skills. Having him in class is a great pleasure, and I find our sessions highly rewarding. Notably, he not only retains previously taught material effectively but also consistently shows initiative by volunteering to answer questions in Chinese. Such a dedicated learning attitude is highly commendable. On a scale of one to ten, he merits a perfect score. I hope he continues to sustain this enthusiasm for learning Chinese. Please keep up the excellent work.

Jayden is a genius in Chinese!! He always keep the passion and positive learning attitude in class. He likes to find the language rules and summarize them in class and note them down on his notebook in time. What's more, I enjoy to watch his homework video every time, it's creative and interesting. He always surprises me in class based on his fast learning in Chinese!
