"I love to teach languages in the context of the culture. I have a master's degree in education with an emphasis in teaching English to the speakers of other languages. I taught English to medical students in Dali Medical College, China, for more than 10 years, at the same time I tutored Chinese to students from the USA, England, Canada and other countries. Currently, I am working at University of California, Irvine. I can take students from Irvine, Tustin, Santa Ana, Anaheim, Placentia to Yorba Linda along the 55 free way. I believe a foreign language is a great tool for the success of a person's life in this modern world. It is a tool to help reach a full understanding of the culture expressed in that language. I believe a teacher's role is to create an interactive learning environment for the student in which both progress and grow." less...
