If you’re a beginner, you are absolutely welcome! Many of my students started from zero, and I specialise in helping new learners build a solid foundation. My lessons focus on clear explanations, accurate pronunciation, and practical communication. In class, you can expect to:
Share your goals and preferred learning style
Follow a structured plan designed for steady progress
Receive bilingual support when needed
Practice Chinese through real-life situations
Clearly see what you have learned after every lesson
If you’d like a gentle and relaxed start to learning Chinese, I’d be happy to guide you. Hope to see you in class!

Hi, I’m Cony. I’ve been learning Chinese with Ms. Ishtar for two months, and I’ve truly enjoyed the experience. She is always supportive and patient, making every lesson enjoyable. Ms. Ishtar seamlessly integrates cultural insights into her teaching and always comes well-prepared with thoughtful materials that make learning both easy and engaging. Thanks to her guidance, I’ve made significant progress in my language skills!
She is a highly accomplished and reflective early childhood educator who consistently demonstrates expertise far beyond foundational teaching competencies. With [Number] years of experience, she has developed a sophisticated, child-centered pedagogy that seamlessly blends theoretical knowledge with compassionate practice. She is not merely a teacher but a master facilitator of learning, an astute observer of child development, and a pillar of our educational community.
