I have been taking Mandarin Module and Chinese Phonetics with Claire, and even though it's only been a month, I already feel like I am starting to be able to communicate in Mandarin. Her style is amazing: prepared, structured, fun and enjoyable. She clearly has experience teaching, and the lessons are both entertaining and informative. Every lesson is pleasant, and I leave having learned important new things. I highly recommend her lessons if you want to learn or improve your Mandarin.

Andres on Tuesday Oct 20

My first class with Claire went smooth and easy, I really enjoyed it. she is paitent and well prepared for the class.......I didn't believe that the class was finished so easily. If you are looking for an excellent instructor in Mandarian Chinese I would definetly recommend her. Can't wait for my next class XD

Sanaa on Tuesday Sep 29

Claire is a very professional, high-effort teacher who will tailor classes to your needs and make the learning process enjoyable. I am consistently impressed by the quantity and quality of thought that she puts into each lesson. I am a professor at one of the nation's top universities and I feel well-qualified to suggest that you could not find a better long-distance educator to assist you with your Mandarin.

Ryan on Friday May 1

My first Chinese Character Writing class with her is beyond my expectation. She's well-prepared and empathy. She pronounced the words several times which is great for me, because I'm quite confused with the tones of Mandarin chinese since I've learned. And she teaches not very fast which help me take time to remember all words. She's great!
