I have studied with Lucy from my first steps in Chinese at the beginner level to advanced HSK 5, and I can heartily recommend her as a fantastic teacher! She prepares great lessons, is attentive to her students' needs, is excellent at facilitating discussion and student participation in the classroom, and is always looking for ways to further improve students' experience based on feedback. I have very much enjoyed learning Chinese with her and would recommend her as a teacher to others. Lucy's excellent teaching was also instrumental in helping me pass the HSK 5 exam, for which I am very grateful. Lucy also gives excellent feedback on Chinese speaking, I feel like my speaking skills improved a lot through her lessons.

Lucy is an exceptional teacher very patient and meticulous in her approach. Her teaching methods really make learning Chinese fun. I started from basic to advanced in a space of 2 years. I can’t rate her highly enough. Thank you

Lucy was a great teacher with friendly, yet no-nonsense attitude. She always worked hard to make the lesson content as close to the students' needs and interests as possible.

I did one to one Mandarin lessons for a couple of years with Lucy and thoroughly enjoyed them.

She moved at the pace I wanted and needed, was great at explaining concepts and providing clear examples, and shared all course materials and presentations, so I could review and go over them again in my own time or revise. She remained accessible and responsive outside of classes, too, if I had the odd question or confusion I needed help with.

I would recommend Lucy and would use her again for my own Chinese learning if and when I’m able to start lessons again.
