Bio:
Hello, I'm introducing myself. I'm from Fujian Province. I studied Japanese for four years in university and spent about a year and a half studying in Japan. My hobbies are sports, traveling, and watching movies. Becoming a teacher has been a dream of mine since childhood. Going forward, as a NetChai instructor, I hope to convey the fun of Chinese and be helpful in your Chinese studies. Please feel free to take lessons with me. I look forward to working with you.
