Testimonials
Kini is a fantastic language tutor, and make my life in HK much easier. She is well prepared in every class and workshop for a small group. I am particularly grateful for her efforts to tailor-made the teaching topics to cater my situations. I would recommend her program to anyone who newly moved to HK as Cantonese is so essential in day to day life as well as in workplace.
Kini is well-experienced and kind Mandarin teacher. When I learned Mandarin from Kini three years ago, she prepared every class in detail. She can teach either in Mandarin or in English. Thanks to her, I could pass HSK exam without difficulty. In addition, she understands how important to keep time. She is flexible to change the place and time per my request.
許老師科班畢業，對粵語及普通話教學頗有研究。她的課程設計理論與真踐結合，難易適度，重視口語運用廣東話能力的培養。我來香港後不久，就在港大專業進修學院接受廣東話初級和中級的培訓，在一年中基本掌握了廣東話日常的聽說讀寫能力，能用微信保持與老師日常溝通。
I was once a student in HKU Space, I studied and learned Intermediate Cantonese under the tutelage of Kini’s teaching.It was really a novice in this wonderful language prior to this lesson. I can confidently testify that this lesson upgraded me tremendously in every capacity of my cognitive reason in terms of language ability. I am really grateful to Kini for the perserverance, enthusiasm and tactfulness she demonstrates throughout the course.
I really enjoyed my Mandarin class with her! I learned a lot during the class and she worked the out upon my needs. And I appreciated the nice working atmosphere. I highly recommend her for Private Mandarin class.
