I have been learning Chinese with Katherine Ling for over two years and highly recommend her as an experienced mandarin tutor. She covers both the traditional and modern teaching methods for spoken and written Chinese, and includes the Chinese cultural aspects that make the lessons interesting. Professional and energetic, high fluency in the English language, and an excellent teacher.

'' I have been learning Mandarin with Ling for 3 years, she understands my learning style and tailors our lessons to suit. She also makes them varied and entertaining. Therefore, despite my limited time, I can improve at a significant pace. This would be impossible with traditional study.
I also highly appreciate her genuine passion for and deep knowledge of the Chinese language and culture. It means that I can learn from different, interesting perspectives such as literature, poetry and history in addition to conventional study materials. It also brings the topics to life and engages you as a student. This makes the learning memorable and therefore greatly improves retention.
She is an excellent educator. I highly enjoy learning Chinese with her and intend to keep studying with her for a long time to come! ''
