Fantastic Chinese Teacher

I have had the pleasure of working with Jessica since late 2017 and she has been a great help. Jessica’s lessons are very structured and are targeted to the needs of a given learner. Understand her guidance, I have achieved an A* at IGCSE and a Level 7(A*) at IB SL Chinese. Jessica has a wealth of experience in teaching students of all levels and utilises a range of teaching methods that help to address all four aspects of language learning (Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing). Jessica also utilises past papers to help her students understand their strengths and areas for development as well as to help inform the planning of future lessons. Jessica then uses this opportunity to set individual learning goals and helps the student work towards their full potential. Thanks to Jessica’s wonderful teaching, I am currently reading East Asian Studies at University in the UK and will be taking Chinese Language modules to an advanced level throughout my degree. I highly recommend Jessica.

I first got to know about Jessica through a close friend of Jessica’s who works at a British school in Singapore. I have had the absolute pleasure of working with her for 5 years. Under Jessica’s guidance, my Chinese reading, writing, Speaking and listening grades have all improved tremendously, so much that I achieved an A* grade in my IGCSE Mock Examinations. Jessica has a wealth of teaching experience under her belt and has a rigorous, well structured method of teaching Chinese to ensure that the student is able to unleash their full potential. Throughout my time working with Jessica, I have tackled a vast number of past papers across all four skills which are assessed, we then go ahead and analyse the papers together once completed and weak points are then pinpointed and addressed immediately. The lessons are subsequently tailored to the students’ needs. (Tailoring lesson plans to suit students’ needs is definitely one of her strong points). In summary, I highly recommend Jessica to all those who desire to study Mandarin Chinese, both simplified and traditional. Jessica is very professional, outgoing and friendly. She is a suitable tutor for students of all skills levels (beginner, intermediate and advanced.) Book a lesson with Jessica today! (All my lessons are conducted online via Zoom)

Jessica and I are based half way across the world, since she lives in the Vancouver,Canada while im based in Singapore. We've been using Zoom, and we've been having hour long classes every Saturday. She knows the curriculum of my school, so she's always been on track with whichever topic, or project we have. She's also taught me about even more than i needed to know at the time, which has made me more confident in lessons. She's helped in tests, in which i scored better than what i would have if i didn't have a teacher. In short, Jessica is a fabulous teacher, and she will make sure you excel in anything Chinese based.

All I can say is that I was very lucky to find Jessica as a tutor. I just completed IB Chinese B SL, and she was an excellent help to me in getting through the program. I doubt I would have been able to do it without her help. She is a great teacher and I would recommend her to anyone learning Chinese, regardless of their level.

Jessica has been a godsend. Every time I have a question she takes time to answer it fully. She's adaptable, kind, enthusiastic and creative and prepared me well for the HSK exam. I highly recommend her, as a teacher and just as a person to be around. :)
