About me

Hi, I’m Nicole!

I’m a Chinese teacher and content creator based in Shenzhen, a fast-growing city known for technology and innovation.

I’ve been teaching Chinese to students from around the world for five years. Over that time, I’ve helped learners progress from their first words in Chinese to more confident conversations. Seeing my students use what they’ve learned in real life is one of my favourite parts of teaching.

As a language learner myself, I’m currently studying Spanish. I understand how it feels to start from scratch, struggle to find the right words, and need a little encouragement along the way.

I love how languages connect people and open doors to new experiences. One day, I hope to travel around the world and share what I discover in Chinese—helping you make progress, enjoy the learning process, and explore the world with me.
