Julia
English & Chinese Tutor with TESOL Master's

Since then, I have had opportunities to teach and tutor in both the United States, Mainland China, and Taiwan. In college, I tutored a high school student in English for one year. As an Asian Studies major, I studied Mandarin Chinese, and so I also did one-on-one tutoring in Chinese with beginner learners at the college. I also have experience teaching children.
