About Joyce
Hello! I’m a native Mandarin Chinese speaker who grew up in Taipei, Taiwan, where I lived for the first 18 years of my life. I hold master’s degrees from Harvard University and UCLA, with an academic background spanning Education Policy and Social Science.
I am fully fluent in both Traditional and Simplified Chinese, including reading, writing, speaking, and listening. I also teach Classical Chinese (文言文) and have experience in Chinese-English translation, proofreading, and academic writing.
What makes my teaching unique is the combination of my native-level language expertise and advanced academic training. My background in education and research allows me to quickly understand new subjects, identify how people learn best, and turn complex concepts into clear, engaging, and easy-to-understand learning materials.
Whether you want to improve your conversational Mandarin, master Chinese reading and writing, prepare for school, study academic Chinese, learn Classical Chinese, or explore Chinese-speaking cultures, I can create a highly personalized learning experience built around your goals, interests, and learning style.

What Makes My Lessons Different?
With my academic background at Harvard and UCLA, I’ve developed strong skills in learning, research, and breaking down complex ideas into clear, easy-to-understand concepts. I bring the same approach to my Mandarin teaching.
I create 100% customized learning plans, materials, pacing, and teaching methods based on each student’s level, goals, interests, and learning style—helping you learn more efficiently and make faster progress.
My support also doesn’t have to end when our lesson does. Upon request, I can provide customized homework and practice materials, answer questions between lessons, and recommend resources to help you continue learning independently.
Most importantly, you won’t just learn Mandarin—you’ll also gain a deeper understanding of Taiwanese and other Mandarin-speaking cultures, history, everyday life, and communication.
My goal is to make learning Chinese personalized, practical, and enjoyable—while helping you discover a whole new world through the language.
