Areta is a great Chinese teacher. Listens closely for any grammar or vocabulary mistakes I make and gives me good word recommendations based on what Taiwanese people would actually say in day to day life. I also really appreciate that she writes all her corrections and new vocabulary in a Google Doc that you can view during class or review after class. I have reviewed that Google Doc to learn a ton of new vocabulary. Highly recommend.

Yzhen Laoshi is a really excellent teacher. Her lessons are always interesting. It is full of new things to learn, i.e, learning how to read pinyin, understanding the meaning of a Chinese song and even exploring topics related to Taiwanese culture. She is very enthusiastic about answering all my questions and provides clear explanations. Learning with her becomes a fun moment and it definitely boosts my confidence to enunciate Chinese words with the correct tones. I will continue to study with her and hopefully I will be able to converse in Chinese with confidence. Thank you Laoshi for the good times.

J’adore les leçons avec Areta. Elle est super patiente (et elle a du mérite), toujours très gaie et on parle de plein de choses. Elle me permet d’apprendre beaucoup de vocabulaire et donne confiance. C’est vraiment une super prof.

Over the past two years, Areta has been an invaluable guide on my language learning journey. She took me from a complete beginner in Chinese to now having a solid foundation in the language and it’s all thanks to her remarkable teaching skills! Her kindness, thoughtfulness, and flexibility have created a supportive environment where I feel comfortable practicing and improving my Chinese speaking skills. Beyond being an amazing teacher, she has become a cherished friend that I look forward to meeting on my future trip to Taiwan! I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn Chinese 🙂
