About Iris
Hello! I'm a native Mandarin speaker with over five years of teaching experience and a professional background as a bilingual journalist and news anchor in Canada. Communicating clearly and effectively is at the heart of my career, and I'm passionate about helping students gain the confidence to use Mandarin in real-life situations.
Over the years, I've worked with learners of different ages and backgrounds, from young children building their first vocabulary to adults learning Mandarin for work, travel, or personal interest. I understand that every student learns differently, so I tailor each lesson to your goals, pace, and learning style.
My students appreciate my patience, clear explanations, and supportive teaching approach. I strive to create a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and celebrating your progress. Whether you want to improve your speaking, pronunciation, reading, or writing, I'll provide structured guidance and practical exercises to help you achieve your goals.
If you're looking for a dedicated tutor with standard Mandarin pronunciation, personalized lessons, and a genuine passion for teaching, I'd be delighted to help you on your language-learning journey. I look forward to meeting you!

As a native Mandarin speaker with over five years of teaching experience, I believe language learning should be practical, engaging, and tailored to each student's goals. Whether you're learning Mandarin for school, work, travel, or personal interest, I create lessons that help you build confidence while enjoying the learning process.
My teaching methodology:
I focus on developing all four language skills—speaking, listening, reading, and writing—through interactive and personalized lessons. I adapt my teaching style to each student's learning pace and interests, using real-life conversations, role-playing, multimedia resources, and structured exercises. For younger learners, I incorporate games, stories, and visual activities to keep lessons fun and engaging. For older students and adults, I emphasize practical communication, pronunciation, grammar, and cultural understanding.
A typical lesson:
Each lesson begins with a brief review of previous material, followed by the introduction of new vocabulary or grammar. Students then practice through guided conversations, reading passages, listening activities, or writing exercises. Every lesson ends with a summary, personalized feedback, and optional practice assignments to reinforce learning.
What sets me apart:
As a bilingual journalist and news anchor, I use Mandarin professionally every day. This allows me to teach students authentic, standard Mandarin pronunciation while helping them understand natural expressions used in real-life situations. My background in communication has also strengthened my ability to explain complex concepts clearly and patiently. Having taught students ranging from preschool children to adults, I understand how to adapt my lessons to different ages, learning styles, and objectives.
Who my lessons are for
I welcome students of all ages and proficiency levels, including:
- Beginners learning Mandarin for the first time
- Children who want to build a strong foundation
- School students seeking academic support
- Adults learning Mandarin for work, travel, or personal enrichment
- Heritage learners looking to improve speaking, reading, or writing skills
My goal is to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment where every student feels comfortable asking questions, making mistakes, and making steady progress toward their language goals.
