Native Chinese speaker with an expertise in biology and psychology

I am a native Chinese speaker originally from Beijing - the capital of China where people speak the most standard Mandarin Chinese. Besides, I am a CEFR C2-certified English speaker and a JLPT N3-certified Japanese speaker. I have been living in the UK for 7 years and am currently based in London.

I hold a double-major BSc degree in Biochemistry and Biological Sciences from University of Liverpool, and a dual-major MSc degree in Molecular and Cognitive Neuroscience from University College London. Besides, I also obtained my Advanced Professional Certificate in Music Theory, Harmony and Ear Training from Berklee College of Music. I am currently a PhD student researching on mental health-related topics at King's College London and a DipHE student in Psychoacoustic, Music Cognition & Music Therapy at Berklee College of Music.

With an expertise in psychology, I am able to support my students both academically and mentally. I am able to tailor personalised lessons based on students' interests, personality, learning habit and learning pace etc. Concurrently with an interest in music, I know how to improve one's language ability by using music in that language as a crucial material - bare in mind that the regions of processing language and music overlap in the brain.

I understand we sometimes encounter bottleneck while learning a language, but trust me, I am very sure that is the tipping point where your daily quantitative accumulation is going to trigger a qualitative change. I will accompany with my student throughout each of these crucial transformation patiently and supportively. With my goal-oriented, approachable and encouraging teaching style, I am confident that my student will improve their language ability while enjoying the learning.
