About Jiayi

Hi! My name is Jiayi, and I am a native Mandarin speaker from China currently living in the United States.

I recently graduated from Northwestern University, where I studied Learning and Organizational Change while competing as a Division I student-athlete. Living and studying in both Chinese and English environments has given me a deep understanding of the challenges language learners face.

I believe that learning a language is about building connections and confidence. Whether you are a beginner, a heritage speaker, or simply interested in Chinese culture, my goal is to create a relaxed and encouraging environment where you feel comfortable practicing and making mistakes.

I especially enjoy working with children and beginners because I love seeing students gain confidence and discover that learning Mandarin can be both practical and fun.

Outside of teaching, I enjoy golf, traveling, and exploring different cultures. These experiences help me bring real-life conversations and authentic cultural perspectives into every lesson.

I look forward to helping you build your Mandarin skills, one conversation at a time.

My Teaching Approach:

· I believe that language is best learned through communication, not memorization. My goal is to help students build confidence and enjoy using Mandarin in everyday life.

· As a native Mandarin speaker who has studied and lived in the United States, I understand the challenges bilingual learners face. I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and expressing themselves naturally.

· Rather than focusing only on vocabulary lists or grammar drills, I incorporate conversations, stories, games, and real-life situations into each lesson.

A Typical Lesson:

• Warm-up conversation based on the student's level.

• Introduce one new topic or language pattern.

• Interactive activities such as role-playing, storytelling, or picture descriptions.

• Review and practical application through speaking.

· Lessons are adjusted to each student's goals, whether they want to improve daily conversation, maintain their heritage language, or build a stronger academic foundation.

What Sets Me Apart:
· Native Mandarin speaker with fluent English communication.
Experience working with international and bilingual environments.
· Patient and encouraging teaching style that focuses on confidence.
· Personalized lessons designed around each student's interests and learning pace.

”I believe that language learning should feel natural, engaging, and enjoyable.“

Who My Lessons Are For:
· Children learning Mandarin as a second or heritage language.
· Beginners with no prior Mandarin experience.
· Students who want to improve conversational Mandarin.
· Families looking for a bilingual tutor who understands both Chinese and American cultural contexts.

My goal is to help students not only learn Mandarin, but also develop the confidence to use it in their daily lives.
