ABOUT ME

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I teach English, and I would be more than happy to help you improve. I'm also an elementary speaker in Mandarin Chinese so I can help if your level is below mine. I can help with computer problems, Photoshop or any general tech related thing. I'd love to learn more about cultures I've never experienced first hand, how to cook food from different places around the globe and simply share stories.
