Bio:: Hello! I'm Sumika, and I've started learning Chinese on NetChai.
As a student, I lived in Tokyo for about 5 years, so I feel a deep affinity for Japanese culture and lifestyle.
My hobby is music appreciation, and I particularly enjoy singing cover songs.
My MBTI type is INTP, and I like analyzing things objectively.
Also, my personal motto is "Trust in books, but not blindly" (a play on the Chinese phrase "信书不如无书").
In lessons, rather than just memorizing correct answers, I'm happiest when I can discover the joy and beauty of Chinese while thinking through things together.
Thank you so much for your support!

Student reviews (latest 100):

She is a very reassuring teacher. Japanese is fine too, and if I don't understand, she explains thoroughly in Japanese. She has a lot of knowledge and makes things easy to understand.
During the lesson, I learned a new vocabulary word, which is "中和" (neutralize).
In class, I learned about the existence of "Yin and Yang Master Abe Seimei," one of the nobility during the Heian period.
In class, I learned new vocabulary words like "Zhongsun" (重孙), "Zengsun" (曾孙), and "Servant" (仆人).
In class, I learned a new phrase "恶作剧" (practical joke), and then I reviewed the difference between "调皮" (mischievous) and "恶作剧" (practical joke).
Today, I had my first lesson with Teacher Sumika through NetChai. She's very skilled at Japanese, so whenever I accidentally started speaking Japanese, she kindly explained things to me in Chinese instead. I'm really happy that she teaches living, practical Chinese expressions. I look forward to continuing with you!
During the lesson, I learned a new vocabulary word, which is "铃铛" (bell).
Thank you for teaching me so patiently.
I was able to talk about things I like and it was really fun^^ When I don't understand something in Chinese, the tutor writes it down in the chat right away, which is really helpful.
During the lesson, I learned about the existence of "EJU" for the first time!
Thank you so much for teaching me Chinese tailored to my needs!
