      CTCSOL+TESOL+IPA+Elementary school teacher certificate+8 years of teaching experience For example, the pronunciation and tone change of the students, like the simplest "hello" is not actually "nǐ hǎo" but "ní hǎo", this is because three tone meet three tone, the first to become two tone. There are also Chinese characters that confuse students.

      "It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or an advanced student with a good level of Mandarin, without a doubt with a little help from Yanling you can improve a lot. Yanling works Mandarin according to the objectives of her students and their preferences, so she sees no problem adapting to what is requested. As a teacher, Yanling understands that the most difficult thing for students, unless they live in a Chinese-speaking country, is precisely pronunciation and oral expression, because it requires great agility. Taking all this into consideration, she still manages to make lessons fun and exciting. So, I highly recommend Yanling as your Mandarin teacher. Thank you again lǎoshī !"
