Hi, this is Yunan! I hold a Master’s degree in Teaching Chinese as an International Language, and I love helping non-native speakers learn to use Mandarin in real-life situations. I especially enjoy connecting with learners from different cultures — teaching Chinese is not just my profession, it’s my passion.

This class is specially designed for beginners who want to learn practical Mandarin for everyday use while traveling. Whether you’re preparing for a trip to China, Taiwan, or any Mandarin-speaking region, this course will help you communicate with confidence and ease.

You’ll learn useful vocabulary, essential sentence patterns, and pronunciation tips for key travel scenarios, such as:

- Greeting people politely
- Asking for directions
- Booking hotels or tickets
- Ordering food and drinks
- Shopping and paying

No prior Chinese knowledge is required — we’ll start with the basics and focus on communication, not just memorizing words. You’ll also get tips on local culture and real-life expressions that make you sound natural.

Join me and get ready to explore the world with Mandarin in your pocket!
