About Angelica

Hi! I'm Angelica, a native Mandarin speaker from Taiwan, currently based in Toowoomba, Australia.
I offer both in-person and online Mandarin lessons.

Before moving to Australia, I spent over five years teaching children's art while also working across art, design, and other creative fields. I also worked as an after-school tutor, helping primary school students with homework and supporting their learning.

Years of teaching have allowed me to continually refine how I explain ideas, design engaging lessons, and adapt my teaching to each student's learning style.

•︎My Teaching Style

I believe language is more than vocabulary and grammar—it's a way to connect with people and culture.

My goal is to help students use Mandarin naturally and confidently in real-life situations—whether through listening, speaking, reading, or writing—while also developing a deeper understanding of Chinese-speaking cultures.

Whether your goal is conversation, travel, cultural understanding, or simply learning a new language for fun.Whether you're a complete beginner or already have some experience, lessons will be tailored to your goals, interests, and learning pace.

•︎︎Traditional Chinese & Zhuyin

As someone from Taiwan, I primarily teach Taiwanese Mandarin using Traditional Chinese characters and Zhuyin (Bopomofo), the writing and phonetic systems used in Taiwan.

-Traditional Chinese preserves the historical structure of many characters, making it easier to understand how they were originally formed and how their meanings developed.

-Zhuyin (Bopomofo) was designed specifically for Mandarin rather than adapted from the Roman alphabet. Many learners find it especially helpful for developing accurate pronunciation.

If you're interested in learning Taiwanese Mandarin through Traditional Chinese characters and Zhuyin, I'd be happy to help.

I can also teach using Simplified Chinese and Hanyu Pinyin, depending on your learning goals and preferences.

I look forward to helping you enjoy learning Mandarin, stay curious, and grow with confidence every step of the way!

About the lesson

Learning a language is about more than memorizing vocabulary and grammar—it's about connecting with people, understanding culture, and discovering a different way of seeing the world.

My lessons focus on helping you use Mandarin naturally in everyday life while exploring the language, the culture behind it, and the many stories, ideas, and ways of thinking that make Mandarin unique.

You might enjoy these lessons if you...

• are completely new to Mandarin.
• already know some Mandarin and want to •express yourself more naturally and confidently.
• enjoy exploring culture through language.
• are interested in Traditional Chinese characters or Zhuyin (Bopomofo).

What you can expect to learn

• Everyday Mandarin you can actually use.
• Clear pronunciation and natural tones.
• Real-life conversations and expressions that textbooks often miss.
• The stories and logic behind Chinese characters.
• Different expressions and accents across Chinese-speaking regions.
• Wordplay, idioms, and expressions that don't translate directly.
• Reading and writing in Traditional Chinese (or Simplified Chinese, depending on your goals).
• Food, festivals, traditions, and everyday culture.
• Optional cultural experiences such as calligraphy or seasonal celebrations.

Every lesson is tailored to your goals, interests, and learning style. Whether you're learning Mandarin for travel, conversation, culture, or simply for fun, I'll help you enjoy the journey one step at a time.

Curiosity is always welcome. If you've ever wondered "Why is Mandarin like this?" we'll probably have a lot of fun exploring the answer together.
