▲ Teaching Areas

◎ (Taiwanese) Mandarin Courses

I have been studied the contrast syntactic analysis among Mandarin, English and Spanish with a professor of Linguistics since I was a university student (& a graduate student). Plus, I also explore a tiny bit of syntactic issues on Taiwanese Southern Min.

Aside from that, I am fairly familiarize myself with the theories and issues on second language acquisition (SLA). For this reason, I can be aware of your feelings, thoughts and the difficulty you may encounter when learning a new language, such as (Taiwanese) Mandarin.

Practically speaking, I have had the teaching certifications and language teaching experience for over 8 years. As for Mandarin teaching, I taught Mandarin for junior high school students by means of various learning strategies, including mind-mapping, dictation, 5H1W, ORID method, etc. It helps me a lot to facilitate students to learn Mandarin. Moreover, thanks to having learned numerous foreign languages (, such as English, Spanish, and a little bit of Japanese, etc.) for over 8 years, I am able to understand you during language learning journey. Feel free to come to join my Mandarin courses and talk about your needs.
