TESTIMONIALS
Learning Chinese with Valentina has been a fun and rewarding experience. She is professional, friendly and really helps to make a tough and seemingly impenetrable language both manageable and exciting. She has a beginner-friendly way of explaining the language and concepts with some fun facts and history to get an appreciation of the cultural aspects of the language and country. IÂ would highly recommend her and her style of teaching to anyone interested in learning Chinese.
Valentina is a brilliant teacher, with an intuitive ability to understand how different pupils need different methodologies. As such she has been able to accommodate my way of learning, which often is more lateral rather than linear. She is always encouraging me to explore the language outside the textbook material, and I feel I have gained a much deeper understanding of Mandarin, as well as of the Chinese culture, than I ever could have expected after just 12 months.

Valentina worked as a Mandarin Consultant for our BBC Animation project. She provided much needed expertise in Chinese culture, helping us to find appropriate songs that represented Chinese values for newcomers to Mandarin. She went beyond simply providing translation and effectively wrote a brand new song which proved to be a big hit with our target young audience. Put simply, we couldn't have done it without her, so we highly recommend Valentina to anybody looking for a dedicated Mandarin learning specialist.
Valentina is a patient and helpful teacher. She explained many teaching methods to our group with useful examples. Additionally, we had many opportunities to communicate with her in the classes. She is a responsible and thorough teacher, and would always remind us to review previous material. Her courses are really interesting and useful!
