About Me

My name is Doris, originally from China and a native Mandarin speaker. I am bilingual in English and have an intermediate level in French (B1). I have studied and worked in Switzerland, China, and internationally, which has given me strong intercultural skills.

I hold a Master’s degree in Hospitality Management & Finance from the Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne and a Bachelor’s degree from Les Roches. I have also worked in various roles in events, communications, and intercultural training, including at IMD Lausanne, Bulgari Hotel Beijing, and Marriott.

As a patient and well-organized teacher, I tailor my lessons to the specific needs of each student: travel conversations, professional communication, cultural discovery, or academic learning. I support adults, students, and professionals in a friendly learning environment that builds confidence and encourages steady progress.
