Gushima Hiroshi

I am very impressed by his professionalism and teaching attitude and would recommend him as a conscious and responsible tutor. I am an expatriate that do not know English and learn gracefully from him.

Leow Xin Pei

Teacher Mike has helped me a lot since 2020 December. He is very helpful and teaches me to think critically and how to apply unique and awesome phrases in grammar and writing. Now, he also teaches me the idioms to improve my writing skills. I'll be sitting the SPM exam, targeting above 79 which Teacher Mike has set for me.

Hao Juin Leow

Teacher Mike has helped me a lot since 2020 December. He is very patient and also my results have improved from the fail to pass between 55 to 76. Besides, now I can speak and know short translations from Chinese to English in the writing. Teacher Mike has set a target for me, it is above 70 in the coming exam.

Fiona

My 13 years old son has been taking English online tuition with teacher Michael for about a year. We find teacher Michael to be a really good tuition teacher. He is conscientious, responsible and takes a lot of time and effort to ensure the lesson is effective. Although we have an hour of tuition, he takes time to prepare before the lesson and also marks homework after the lesson so I think he spends double of time we pay for. In addition, teacher Michael also prepares exams for my son to take after every term and sends me the student progress report, so he is more or less like a school teacher! Other than the actual lesson plan, I also like the fact that teacher Michael always takes time to have a short chat with my son, he will find out about his interest, what’s happening to him that week and so extra activities that fit his interest to keep him engaged with the lesson. Kudos to him for that!

I am of British national, staying in the UK and learning online piano lessons with Donovan. Great start, great teacher! Good first piano lesson with Donovan today.

Ashira Malka

I am learning online Mandarin (Kung Fu specialism) with Donovan; and I am a US citizen residing in the US. I have studied many languages with many teachers and his lessons are stellar and outstanding! He is very organized and tailored the lessons to my interest – which means his lessons really held my interest! Donovan is indeed an excellent teacher in many ways: He is fun, bright, attentive and as detail-oriented as you want to be! You get to pick your own level of detailed orientation within your own lessons and it can even vary lesson-by-lesson; I have never met a teacher like this before!

Joshua Chun Wah Kam

I am a doctorate student at an American University, currently doing a piece of research and writing a dissertation on Asian food, which requires the use of Cantonese. Donovan is an incredibly diligent, thoughtful, prepared tutor. His online Cantonese course is like a classroom experience, and he is both prepared for the course material as well as willing to follow up on more complex questions for the next lesson. His teaching style is adaptable to the needs of students (in my case, Cantonese lessons - I have a very specific research focus and he has been more than willing to accommodate). In addition, he blends some elements of traditional Chinese education with a western outlook and pedagogical style. Would highly recommend him.

Marc

I am a senior partner of a German law firm based in Germany; and I have been taking online legal English (English for lawyers) lessons from Mr. Donovan. I often travel between Germany and Kuala Lumpur for work purpose and his online lessons match this requirement. He is a very reliable teacher who listens to exactly what I want. He takes time for my questions and uses very good learning materials. We always have interesting discussions. This makes the lessons fun.

Steve

A positive and patient piano instructor that makes me feel good and tailors the online piano classes to my style. Mr Donovan is doing a great job in helping me to prepare for the piano examination of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), London. In fact, I sat for and passed my ABRSM Initial Grade Piano Exam with the highest ranking of distinction on the first attempt, after having just seven lessons with Donovan. And I am based in the US and often travel to Beijing, China for work purpose. Highly recommended.

Alika Jean-Jacques

Mr. Donovan is an awesome Mandarin teacher. Patient and knowledgeable, with great energy to keep kids engaged. Highly recommend.

Great class and a great teacher. Mr. Donovan is very well organized and encourages everyone to participate. He teaches lessons from textbooks and workbooks. The lessons cover speaking, writing, and listening. I love the fact that he makes kids repeat after him so that they are well engaged in the class. He makes learning fun. Great class, very enjoyable and I highly recommend it.

Malcolm

I am an adult enrolled in this mandarin class with Mr. Donovan. I am currently working in a medical field which requires me to speak to mandarin speaking clients. I took medical chinese language classes with Mr Donovan, it is conducted online which is convenient as I have a tight schedule due to work. Based on the classes with Mr Donovan, I can vouch that he is very passionate about teaching. Every class that he delivers are concise and he provides suitable materials for you to learn before classes. He is able to draw your attention by making the class more captivating in various ways. His professionalism is commendable because of the way he conducts the classes on time and well mannered in guiding me. Online classes with Mr Donovan are both practical and extremely convenient. I would recommend to anyone who needs to learn mandarin (At any level of mandarin and age) with Mr Donovan.

I am looking to upgrade my qualification to higher grade before I take Mr Kwan lesson. His online lesson match my lifestyle, because I am busy and do not have time to travel to music center for piano lesson, I am glad to have online piano lesson to ease my burden to travel long way to music center.

Patient, experience and knowledgeable. He will tell the story of the music /song before I start to learn the song, and analysis score for me, this help me interpret the music deeper when I am playing. He will suggest alternative way of practice the song such as using the block chords method to make the practice more efficient.

He is also very flexible in accommodating with my timing besides his busy schedule. I am able to play confidently despite having learned from him 3 months ago.

Irfan

I am an adult. Working in the automotive sales industry. I am learning Spoken Cantonese from Mr Kwan. The lessons provided is through online video call. It’s been 3 months already since I started to learn from him. Before I join Mr Kwan’s Lessons, my knowledge of Cantonese was completely zero. After a while, I noticed that I could possibly understand my colleagues speaking to each other. it’s not that much, but that is what i can say good progress for me. I feel there is so much improvement week after week. this has been useful in my daily working life. Online lessons from Mr Kwan are very effective. Mr Kwan’s passion, commitment, dedication, patience, flexibility in lesson rescheduling, communication (clarity in lesson delivery), organization (notes/learning material given to me), professionalism (manners in speaking, answering my doubts and replies; timeliness in starting lessons), generosity in extra lesson time given to me in his teaching is way up to the standard and unexpected. His styles of teaching i.e. friendliness, engagement, hands-on & practical approach are very straightforward and easy to communicate. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Mr Kwan to be your Cantonese teacher. I believe his other lessons will definitely be the same standard and teaching style as well.

Fadzillah Ab Rashid

My 13 years old son, Adam is learning Mandarin with Mr Kwan. Adam is from Chinese mixed family who doesn't speak Chinese. That is why I went trough FB and found Mr Kwan. Mr Kwan makes Adam feels so comfortable and focus on what his teaching. I was impressed with the quality of his tutoring sessions. After the 5 -10 lessons from Mr Kwan finally now Adam can watch Chinese show with me and he understands and can speak Chinese in a very proper way. Adam really enjoy his Chinese class with Mr Kwan. He is really good to make someone focus on his class yet fun to learn!

Syuhaini

Very thorough in preparation of teaching materials and very attentive to details. I'm currently a student of Master's degree in MBA, studying English with Kwan. The teaching materials prepared are highly useful and relevant to my MBA Course. I can easily understand the teacher's teaching, the teacher communicated clearly and effectively to me. My 3 children, including a secondary school student, are currently learning with Kwan too. He is very patient with them. Lessons are fun and inspiring. Kwan also give me and my children much extra lesson time for each lesson. I and my children can easily understand the teacher's teaching very well. Teacher is able to pinpoint weaknesses, give advices and improve them. Thus, from my point of view, Kwan is very qualified and experience in teaching English to varied English levels of various learners. He is very dedicated and responsible educator who genuinely care about students' learning. I highly recommend Kwan for almost any level of English learning. Bravo!

Vinod

He is very dedicated to the teachings. He allots extra time on all lessons to make sure the student really grasps the weeks lesson, making it easy to practice over the week till the next lesson. I am an adult residing in Kuching , Sarawak and he is from KL, yet his online classes are so good that it is like having a real teacher beside you. He uses excellent audio visual equipment for his teachings so all online classes have been extremely smooth and with no communication disruptions. His years of experience serves well as he is able to render the lesson and acknowledge the mistakes instantly and provide immediate rectification. I enjoy my classes with him and hope to learn the piano in record time under his tutelage.

Evelyn

I can confidently say that they are an exceptional educator. From the beginning until now, my experience with them is incredibly positive. she possesses an in-depth understanding of the subject matter. Moreover, she constantly finds ways to improve her teaching style so it can be more enjoyable. What i like most about her is her willingness to assist me outside of our scheduled lesson times. Whenever I encounter a challenging problem or have questions about the subject, she is just a message or call away, ready to help.

Ms Chen is a great mandarin teacher for my daughter who is an international school student. Her classes are personalized, fun and interactive. As a result of attending her classes, my daughter developed an interest in Mandarin and started to naturally communicate in mandarin from time to time. Her results improved dramatically and more importantly, she enjoys learning the language.

ROSEHAYATI

She is very dedicated and always strive to make sure her student understands what she has taught and most importantly she is very patience.

Law

I have found Chris Lee as an extraordinary tutor. I never thought I would be able to speak Chinese in a few weeks and make a presentation in front of my Chinese co-worker, and they understood what I said! I like the approach: customised coursework, one-on-one lessons and flexible timings. Her teaching is engaging and very enjoyable. Every things that I learned was very practical and useful in my work. I’m happy that I’m starting to speak Chinese while ordering food and trying to make conversation with Chinese people. I strongly recommend Chris Lee for anyone who wants to learn Mandarin in an effective and efficient manner. No one can teach better than her.

Aizat

Chris is an experienced tutor where she would adjust her teaching according to your understanding and what's practical in real life, so you don't need to waste time to force your brain to learn something that you will never use or listening to "wode pengyou zai narli, zai zheli,zai zheli" 100x times. Her teaching is not rigid, and she always there to help your learning.

Kim

I am a few weeks into my Mandarin classes with Chris and could not be happier with my choice to begin learning this language! Chris' approach is pragmatic and practical which has given me the ability to construct basic everyday sentences in only a handful of classes. I believe that this method of learning is extremely useful and I have already been able to engage in simple talk with Mandarin speakers as well as finally understand what's going when ordering food in a Chinese restaurant. A huge thumbs up to her patience with her students and ability to address any questions I might have in the most clear manner to further enhance my learning process. I'm excited to see my Mandarin language skills progress more and more in the coming weeks!

Kush

Chris Lee was patient and unafraid to push my abilities without making me feel frustrated or incompetent. I would recommend her to anyone.

Alice Hoang

Chris Lee is very gentle and patient during the learning process. She speaks very clear and slow so the students can catch up all the time and always willing to repeat or answer our questions until we are clear about the lessons. She also has beautiful voice. Her method in teaching is very comprehensive and motivated. We highly recommend Chris Lee for your Chinese language learning.

Harryzal Bin Mustapha

Very high spirited even when our enthusiasm is very low.

Cornie

Chris is a very talented and knowledgeable tutor. She is patient and supportive and had a very nice way about her. She came extremely prepared which impressed me. What I loved about working with Chris is that she didn't teach me anything I didn't need. We only focused on the important concepts I'm going to need for my job. A pleasure to work with and definitely a class act. Would recommend to anyone.

Andrew Chin

Since 2015 teacher Chris has been tutoring both my 9 and 11 year old boys in 4 core school subjects (English, Science, Maths and Chinese). She is always on-time, articulate, kind and patient. Both my kids love her and I can see visible improvement in their school, homework and examination results. I have also personally taken Mandarin classes from her and find that her teaching methodology and approach is very effective. I highly recommend her.

Perry

She is a very passionate and dedicated teacher. After having a few classes with her I can definitely see an improvement in my ability to converse in Mandarin. The use of PinYin to teach makes it easy for me to grasp the language faster. She is very patient and always ensures that I understand what was taught. I would highly recommend Chris Lee to anyone wanting to learn to speak Mandarin fast.

Hiroko

She is an excellent teacher, I learned a lot from her. She comes on time, fun to learn with her, and I improved so much. Unfortunately I have to move out from this country that's why have to quite the lesson otherwise I would have continued to learn from her. I had a chance to change my flight in China, and I could talk in Chinese language with local people and they understood. It made me happy! I definitely recommend her for your tutor. Thank you Chris.

Miri

Her teaching style is very communicative-based and student-centered. I was a little worried because it was the first time to learn Chinese. But thanks to Chris, I become more interested in Chinese and motivated to keep studying it as well.
