Fun conversation lessons- English or Chinese (Mandarin / Cantonese)
Hello! My name is Mary and I'm from Singapore. I love traveling, meeting people and learning languages. I'm a polyglot, that means I'm interested in languages and can use quite a few of them fluently: English, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, etc.
My background
I've been living and teaching in Japan for over 20 years. I've taught at schools and universities, large corporations (JR East), government Ministries (MOE),and even the military (JIETAI).
During my time here, I've taught English (still teaching) to people from all walks of life: school students, teachers, home-makers, retirees, technicians, designers, company executives, physicians, lawyers, police officers and military personnel, etc. I've taught conversational Mandarin & Cantonese too, to students of all ages, both in person and online.
My focus and belief
I'm friendly, fun and energetic. In my classes, I focus largely on having a good time. My belief is that you learn better if you're having a good time. Of course, I also believe in helping my students improve their pronunciation, intonation, and fluency; and for them to reach the goal of communicating naturally and confidently in the language (languages) they choose to learn.
So, what are you waiting for? Contact me today, and let's start this exciting-and-fun-learning journey together!
Accents, spelling / characters:
-English: North American
-Mandarin: Mainland China (Simplified Chinese)
-Cantonese: Hong Kong (Traditional Chinese)
