About Julian
I am a professional educator with over 10 years of instructional experience, a Bachelor of Education, and TESOL certification including specialized training in teaching Mandarin Chinese. I have developed a practical, results-driven teaching philosophy centered on clear communication and real-world application.
As a fluent Mandarin speaker with 20 years of experience connecting with native speakers, I bridge the gap between English thinking and natural Chinese phrasing. I tailor every interaction to your personal learning style, ensuring our sessions are purposeful, dynamic, and focused on genuine fluency. Of course, I always remember to keep learning fun!

Hi, I'm Julian! My teaching approach strips away outdated textbook fluff and focuses on high-leverage language skills that get you speaking functional Mandarin quickly. Having mastered Mandarin myself, I teach the exact shortcuts, phonetic mechanics, and patterns that make the language click for English speakers. While our lesson plan always prioritizes your personal goals, nothing is left to chance—I have curated the best materials to ensure every session is clear, engaging, and well-structured.
What a Typical Lesson Includes:
Targeted Warm-Up: Quick pronunciation and tone tuning to build vocal muscle memory.
Core Frameworks: Introducing essential conversational structures, common idioms, and grammar principles through practical context.
Interactive Application: Immersive speaking drills and active dialogue practice to build instinct and fluidity.
Actionable Feedback: Real-time correction and concise notes to guide your independent practice between sessions.
Who These Lessons Are For:
Beginners wanting a clear, logical foundation without getting overwhelmed.
Intermediate learners looking to improve pronunciation, master natural sentence flow, and build conversational confidence.

Julian has played a big part in helping me improve my Mandarin over the years, I have really appreciated his knowledge, patience, and teaching style. I have had the opportunity to learn from him in several different settings — in a classroom, online, and through one-on-one lessons. This has given me a great appreciation for how well-rounded and versatile he is as an instructor.
Julian is highly proficient in Mandarin and has an excellent understanding of how the language is used both in everyday, real-world situations and in more formal settings. Whenever I have a question about how to say something naturally, he is always able to explain it clearly and provide practical examples.
What I appreciate most about Julian is his ability to make learning Mandarin fun, relaxed, and informative. He is patient, knowledgeable, and able to adapt his teaching to what I am trying to learn and improve.
I would highly recommend Julian to anyone looking to learn Mandarin, whether you are just starting out or wanting to improve your existing skills. Based on my experience with him over the years, I would give Julian 10 out of 10 as an instructor. I have really enjoyed learning with him and feel that his teaching has made a significant difference in my Mandarin ability.My lessons with Julian have helped my Chinese improve so much! Although I had tried learning Mandarin on my own and through various apps, my lessons with Julian are what have helped me progress the most. He is able to explain grammar clearly, correct bad habits, and pinpoint exactly what I need to work on to fill in the gaps in my knowledge.
Julian isn’t just a skilled linguist; he is also an excellent teacher who really knows how to explain Chinese in a way that native English speakers can easily understand. His fluency in Mandarin is amazing, but what I appreciate most is his creative and unique approach to teaching. He always finds different ways to explain things and keeps the lessons interesting and fresh. I’ve become much more confident in my Chinese as a result of our lessons. Highly recommend!I highly recommend Julian as a Mandarin teacher! He taught me Mandarin over multiple years, both in-person and online. His teaching methods are extremely effective and he makes lessons fun, engaging, and memorable. His sense of humour always made learning fun rather than intimidating, and he genuinely cares about helping you progress.
Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn Mandarin!I couldn’t recommend Julian more! He is an excellent tutor with an amazing, native-level grasp of Mandarin, yet he has put in all of the hard work to learn, so he is able to clearly and accurately teach Chinese. His teaching methods and approach to learning are great, encouraging, and show that he understands the best way for someone at any level to improve their language abilities. He has been helping me correct all of my bad tones, and all of my Chinese friends say I am much easier to understand and I now can speak much more naturally! 5 10/10 experience! Thx Julian
