Hello! I’m Sandra, and I’m passionate about helping students achieve their language goals in Chinese. My goal is to make learning accessible, meaningful, and fun for students of all levels. From mastering basic characters to engaging in fluent conversations, I’ll guide you with patience and strategies that fit your unique learning style. Besides, I'm also a dedicated and passionate educator with experience in teaching Science and Biology at secondary school levels. As a trainee teacher, I have worked with students to make complex concepts easier to understand through engaging and interactive lessons. I am adaptable and committed to ensuring that every student reaches their full potential.

Each class begins with a clear agenda, outlining the goals and topics for the session. I prefer gamification where games like quizzes, character-matching, or sentence-building competitions. Conversational practice, spaced repetition for vocabulary and storytelling also mostly used by me. I also record lessons and share the recordings along with supplementary materials on platforms like Google Drive or Microsoft Teams, so students can review them at their convenience.

At very first point, I use visually engaging slides and digital tools to make lessons interactive and informative. Tools such as Google Slides, Canva, or Prezi help create presentations with animations, infographics, and diagrams to make complex concepts easier to grasp. Videos, virtual simulations, and 3D models are also incorporated to add depth and context to the learning material. Next, i frequently employ acronyms, mnemonics, and storytelling techniques to help students remember challenging topics. For example, when teaching Science, I might use "MRS GREN" to explain the seven life processes: Movement, Respiration, Sensitivity, Growth, Reproduction, Excretion, and Nutrition. These strategies make learning both fun and effective. Moreover, online platforms like Kahoot, Quizizz, or Socrative are integrated into my teaching to add an element of competition and fun. These tools not only keep students engaged but also serve as formative assessments to gauge their understanding in real time. Lastly, I will also provide digital worksheets, interactive exercises, and simulations for students to practice concepts independently. Tools like Google Forms, Edmodo, or Classkick allow students to complete assignments and receive instant feedback. After every session, I offer constructive feedback through email or chat, highlighting strengths and areas for improvement.
