I grew up and finished my master's degree in Hong Kong. With over 14 years of working experience in Hong Kong in Multinational Companies, I understand the business world well and how they talk. I can also communicate in simple Mandarin. My kids were born in the USA and all of them can communicate with others in Cantonese without big problems. That shows that my teaching method is good. Recently I worked as an English - Cantonese Medical Interpreter in a Multinational Language Company that further proved that my Cantonese standard is outstanding. The easiest way to learn Cantonese is to have a native Cantonese speaker talk to you daily for an hour. You can talk about anything; the vocabulary will gradually build up and become more and more fluent. For beginners, we can start with learning the basics first; it really depends on the learners. For kids, we can start with the names of animals, fruits, families, etc. I definitely will have some teaching materials for beginners so that they can learn the language more easily. I work well with kids and am just passed the Teaching Assistant examination." Read less

Improve your Cantonese with a native teacher

Teacher joined in Mar, 2026

I had taught Cantonese in group and private lessons both in the NYC classroom and online for 3 years. I enjoy teaching and love to empower students to converse in Cantonese with confidence. I try to incorporate different teaching techniques to ensure the lesson is interactive and fun. For private lesson, I will adapt the lesson based on the individual student need, interest, and Cantonese ability. I had taught beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. Most of my past students learn Cantonese so that they can communicate better with their family members and some for the work reason. I am fluent in English, understand Mandarin, and conversational in Spanish.

The most difficult part in learning a foreign language is the practice, which can be acquired only by conversing with a native speaker. For people willing to practice foreign languages, it is difficult to find a private language tutor who lives or works in their city. TUTOROO has been designed to provide a frictionless experience while connecting tutors to students, for private in-person language lessons.
