About Janet

I’m a Mandarin tutor based in Sydney with 2 years of teaching experience and 30+ positive reviews.

I specialise in helping two types of learners:

1. Complete beginners

Students who want to start speaking Mandarin from zero in a clear, structured, and supportive way — with a strong focus on helping you start speaking from Day 1.

2. Heritage / passive learners

Students who can already understand Mandarin or recognise characters, but struggle to speak confidently and naturally.

Many of my students already understand spoken Mandarin or can recognise basic phrases, but feel “stuck” when trying to speak. I help bridge this gap by turning passive understanding into active speaking ability through structured, guided practice and step-by-step speaking drills.

I also speak Cantonese, which allows me to explain tones, pronunciation, and meaning more clearly for Cantonese-speaking students and heritage learners. This makes learning Mandarin smoother, faster, and easier to understand.

I teach online Mandarin lessons worldwide and welcome students from all countries, backgrounds, and time zones. My lessons are especially suitable for English-speaking learners who want a clear, patient, and structured learning experience.

My teaching style is supportive, practical, and focused on real communication. I guide students step by step so they can start speaking Mandarin naturally and confidently from the very beginning.
