About Flora
My goal is not simply to teach children Mandarin—it is to help them forget that they are learning.
I design purposeful games, challenges and activities that naturally encourage children to listen, speak, think and respond in Mandarin. Every game has a learning goal behind it, but to the children, it simply feels like play. They become fully involved, complete each language task without pressure, and enjoy the sense of achievement that comes with it.
Children who have attended my classes are often highly motivated and excited to continue learning Chinese. For me, the most important outcome is that children enjoy every lesson, build confidence and develop a genuine interest in the language.
I am a native Mandarin speaker with a Master’s degree in language teaching and seven years of Chinese teaching experience, including experience as a school Mandarin teacher and Chinese program leader.

My lessons are interactive, practical and personalised to each student’s age, level and learning goals. I use games, stories, role-play and real-life conversations to help students understand and confidently use Mandarin, rather than simply memorising vocabulary.
Lessons are usually 45–60 minutes and are suitable for children, teenagers and adults, from complete beginners to more advanced learners.
I have seven years of Chinese teaching experience, including working as a Mandarin teacher and Chinese programme leader at an Auckland intermediate school and a private education provider. I also coached a student who represented their school in the Chinese Bridge competition, won the Auckland regional championship and progressed to the national competition.
My students have described me as “the teacher who makes language learning fun.”
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Flora has been teaching Chinese to my daughter, and we have been very happy with her lessons. She is patient, encouraging and knows how to explain things in a way that is easy for children to understand. My daughter has become much more confident speaking Chinese and genuinely enjoys her lessons with Flora. I would happily recommend her to other parents looking for a kind and reliable Chinese teacher.
I really enjoy learning Chinese with Flora. She is friendly and patient, and she explains new words and grammar in a simple way that makes them easier to remember. I used to feel a bit nervous speaking Chinese, but Flora always encourages me to try and helps me when I make mistakes. Her lessons are interesting and I feel much more confident now.
Flora is a very supportive and knowledgeable Chinese teacher. She helped me improve my speaking, vocabulary and understanding of Chinese, especially in areas I was struggling with at school. She explains things clearly and adapts the lesson depending on what I need to work on. I also really appreciate that I can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. I would definitely recommend her to other students studying Chinese.
I started learning Chinese with Flora, and she has made the learning process much less intimidating than I expected. She is patient, organised and very good at explaining pronunciation and sentence structures in practical ways. I particularly like that she focuses on useful everyday Chinese rather than simply memorising vocabulary. Flora creates a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable practising and making mistakes. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn or improve their Chinese.
