Hi, my name is Lan Yang, you can also call me Diane,I’m now a teaching assistant in a local independent school in Edinburgh, Scotland. I have completed my master’s degree for interpreting between Chinese and English in BLCU which is a renowned university in Beijing, China for its high quality and strict requirements in fields like languages, literature and teaching.
I have nurtured my talent and interest for languages since a very young age and am further motivated by the sense of mission as an envoy between two languages and cultures. So I invested significant efforts to make myself capable of interpreting, translating and teaching.
For internships, I have served as TA and instructor in several institutions such as EF, New Channel, dealing with students of different ages and cultural backgrounds. It has opened new doors of cultural literacy and understanding, and I’ve gained super useful experience about how to teach and interact with people. I have also taught students online during the pandemic, helping them to review their lessons for college entrance exam and IELTS. For those who don’t know English at all, I could help to build their interest and foundation since language is also my passion. I enjoy teaching not only because I like the sense of achievement after seeing my students’ progress, but also because I can learn something from my students, no matter if it’s their hardworking attitude or their passion for languages. They always motivate me to do better and provide more enriched knowledge to share with them. I am really looking forward to meeting more young learners who are interested in studying English and Chinese!
