Yuhan Xiao
Hello everyone! I’m the teacher for this weekend program. I have five years of experience working with children in NGOs, and I’m currently a Chinese after-school teacher at an elementary School. I truly enjoy spending time with kids and believe in learning through play and exploration.
I’m patient, detail-oriented, and passionate about art. I often incorporate creative activities like drawing and crafts into my Chinese lessons. This course will be taught entirely in Chinese, and we’ll be learning outside the classroom—exploring nature, discovering the world, and using real-life experiences to build language skills and cultural understanding. My goal is to help every child fall in love with Chinese in a fun and relaxed environment.
