Bio

Hi there! I'm Brandon - a qualified sound engineer proficient in Chinese. I have lived and worked in China for 3 years and sincerely wish to pass on the rich language and culture I found there.

I taught English in China for over a year, which really strengthened my teaching skills and taught me how to put myself in the mind of my students. I like to build a solid foundation at the start so that you can start learning this magnificent language as quick as possible! I always make the lessons fun and engaging and also explain things in a clear and concise manner.

I spent close to 3 years living in Beijing, China. I spent half of that time studying Chinese at Tsinghua University (Arguably the best university in China) and achieved multiple distinctions in my course. I have a very standard Chinese accent.
