Meet Natasja

Hi, I’m Natasja. I’m a qualified teacher of Mandarin in the UK, with years of experience teaching Mandarin in secondary school and 1-to-1 tutoring.

As a native English speaker, I completely understand the joys, and struggles, of learning this amazing language.

My aim is to make the Mandarin learning process as accessible and convenient as possible, so you can feel confident with your skills and feel motivated to learn more.
