I grew up in Nanchang, Jiangxi province and went to universities in Wuhan (BA) and Shanghai (MA). I lived and worked in Tasmania, Australia for a year in 2014 and am currently working at an international school in Beijing.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am an extroverted and communicative person. I enjoy making friends and sharing my happiness with other people. On the one hand, I am spontaneous and enthusiastic, always willing to explore new things. On the other hand, I am a person in pursuit of perfection able to do things in a calm manner and to take a step back when needed. I believe that in life you cannot erase anything which is why one should try to do one’s best and not regret anything. Because of this mindset, I have continuously tried hard to gain different experiences that can enrich my life.

Australia for a year! I worked and lived in Hobart, Tasmania. Sky-dived and scuba-dived in Cairns. Visited museums in Melbourne and Sydney. Enjoyed my time in Australia!

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I currently teach Chinese acquisition at an international school in Beijing. Teaching Chinese to non-Chinese speaker and seeing their progress and growth through learning is satisfaction to me. Before I moved to Beijing, I worked at the Friends' School in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. I love learning and enjoy taking courses online and on-ground. I regularly sign up for professional development workshops and online courses to extend my learning. I also share my learning and working experiences with newbie teachers at the local university.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Life is a journey and always filled with interesting stories. I would love to share my stories with you and I would love to listen to your stories.
I don't mind being a tour guide to explore the city on weekends and after work if I don't have work to catch up.
Besides, if you are interested in learning Mandarin or Cantonese, please stop by and couch in.
